5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=2291.67
2) x%=527.08
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%=2291.67/527.08
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 527.08 is what percent of 2291.67
