Let "x" represent the total revenue of the previous year.
According to the information given, the total revenue of this year is 36% more than the previous year's total revenue, so it can be expressed as x + 0.36x = 1.36x.
We know that the total revenue of this year is $64,600, so 1.36x = $64,600.
Dividing both sides of the equation by 1.36 gives x = $64,600 / 1.36 = $47,500.
Therefore, the total revenue of the previous year was $47,500. Answer: \boxed{47500}.
