LoginWe are given that 220% of a number X is equal to 44. Mathematically, we can express this as:
220% of X = 44
To find the value of X, we need to convert the percentage to a decimal. 220% is equivalent to 2.2 in decimal form. Therefore, we can rewrite the equation as:
2.2 * X = 44
Now, let's solve for X:
X = 44 / 2.2
X = 20
We have found that X is equal to 20.
Now, we need to find 44% of X. Mathematically, we can express this as:
44% of X = (44/100) * 20
44% of X = 0.44 * 20
44% of X = 8.8
Therefore, 44% of X is equal to 8.8.
Among the given options (A. 8.8, B. 8.9, C. 6.6, D. 7.7), the correct answer is A. 8.8.
