5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=6016.79
2) x%=3000.29
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%=6016.79/3000.29
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 3000.29 is what percent of 6016.79

(100/x)*x=(6016.79/3000.29)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=2.0054028110616*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.0054028110616) to get x
100/2.0054028110616=x
49.86529362002=x
x=49.86529362002

now we have:
