5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=5376.6
2) x%=2262.25
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%=5376.6/2262.25
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 2262.25 is what percent of 5376.6
