5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=229.13
2) x%=6184.74
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%=229.13/6184.74
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 6184.74 is what percent of 229.13
