5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=2927.75
2) x%=62.25
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%=2927.75/62.25
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 62.25 is what percent of 2927.75
