5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=6089.01
2) x%=2636.26
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%=6089.01/2636.26
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 2636.26 is what percent of 6089.01
