5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=4508.86
2) x%=3036.17
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%=4508.86/3036.17
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 3036.17 is what percent of 4508.86
