Answer: The answer to your question is 200

Step-by-step explanation: because when you are multiply a percentage by a whole number, you are trying to find what percentage of the whole number makes the problem true. In your case, the problem would be set up like this:

44% of what number is 88

0.44 of x is 88

So, now that you have the problem set up, the final answer would be 200 after you have gone through each answer and substituted each value to come up with a true statement
