5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=2347.09
2) x%=784.27
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%=2347.09/784.27
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 784.27 is what percent of 2347.09
