5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=24999.96
2) x%=60.12
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%=24999.96/60.12
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 60.12 is what percent of 24999.96
