5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=13026.65
2) x%=251.17
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%=13026.65/251.17
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 251.17 is what percent of 13026.65
