5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=23385.4
2) x%=13257.6
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%=23385.4/13257.6
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 13257.6 is what percent of 23385.4
