5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=2666.59
2) x%=1821.08
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%=2666.59/1821.08
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1821.08 is what percent of 2666.59
