5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=2052.68
2) x%=364.68
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%=2052.68/364.68
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 364.68 is what percent of 2052.68
