5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=3800.97
2) x%=5662.63
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%=3800.97/5662.63
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 5662.63 is what percent of 3800.97
