5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=7104.99
2) x%=2240.02
where left sides of both of them have the same units, and both right sides have the same units, so we can do something like that:
100%/x%=7104.99/2240.02
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 2240.02 is what percent of 7104.99
