5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=3054.59
2) x%=2285.06
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%=3054.59/2285.06
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 2285.06 is what percent of 3054.59
