5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=15052.75
2) x%=23.28
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%=15052.75/23.28
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 23.28 is what percent of 15052.75
