1. We assume, that the number 7615000 is 100% - because it's the output value of the task.
2. We assume, that x is the value we are looking for.
3. If 100% equals 7615000, so we can write it down as 100%=7615000.
4. We know, that x% equals 2637.2 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=2637.2.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=7615000
2) x%=2637.2
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%=7615000/2637.2
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 2637.2 is what percent of 7615000

100%/x%=7615000/2637.2
(100/x)*x=(7615000/2637.2)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=2887.5322311543*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2887.5322311543) to get x
100/2887.5322311543=x
0.034631648063033=x
x=0.034631648063033

now we have:
