5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=53755
2) x%=2408.48
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%=53755/2408.48
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 2408.48 is what percent of 53755
