X / 44 = 75 / 100
Do some algebra and X = 33

Answered by robertwalls | 2024-06-10

The number is 33.
75% of 44 is 33.
What is a percentage?
The percentage is calculated by dividing the required value by the total value and multiplying by 100.
Example:
Required percentage value = a
total value = b
Percentage = a/b x 100
Example:
50% = 50/100 = 1/2
25% = 25/100 = 1/4
20% = 20/100 = 1/5
10% = 10/100 = 1/10
We have,
Number = x
75% of 44
x = 75/100 x 44
x = 3/4 x 44
x = 3 x 11
x = 33
Thus,
75% of 44 is 33.

To calculate 75% of 44, first convert 75% to a decimal (0.75) and then multiply it by 44, resulting in 33. Therefore, 75% of 44 is 33.
