Step-by-step explanation:

Let's set up a proportion.

345.12/4638.34=x/100.

A percent is always out of one hundred and is the part out of a whole, so  to solve for it we must set x equal to the part (345.12) out of the whole (4638.34).

Now if we solve for x it will equal 7.440593, which is kind of a big number. We can round it to the nearest hundredth, 7.44%, or just round it to the nearest percentage 7%.
