so, if we take 1545 to be the 100%, what is 47.20 in percentage off of it anyway?
[tex]\bf \begin{array}{ccll}
amount&\%\\
\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\
1545&100\\
47.20&p
\end{array}\implies \cfrac{1545}{47.20}=\cfrac{100}{p}\implies p=\cfrac{47.20\cdot 100}{1545}[/tex]
