5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=12.253
2) x%=6248.95
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%=12.253/6248.95
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 6248.95 is what percent of 12.253
