You got the right answer Rosala, but you made it look really hard.

it is just

22/88*100% = 25%

you know i also have to think hard in these kinda questions!but that thinking hard has led me to ur answer!yay!

so here we'll solve this like this:

as we dont know what percent we'll assume it as x okay!so here we go:

x%/100% * 88 = 22   (as of means multiplication we have used a multiplication sign instead of "of")

88x/100 = 22  (here we have multiplied 88 and x which has given us 88x)

88x=22*100 (here as we have changed 100's place thats y we have changed it to multiplication)

88x=2200  (now we'll change 88's place and as it is already in multiplication we'll turn it to division)

x=2200/88 (now just reduce it to simplest form)

x=25  ANSWER

so 25% of 88 is 22.

I hope uve understood by now and if not then pls be free to ask!

I hope this helps!
