Answer:

35 1/5 = 176/5

Explanation:

When I deal with percent's especially a percent that can be turned into a friendly fraction, I'd like to turn it into a fraction. So I turned 125% into 5/4. 5/4x=44. Now I can divide both sides by 5/4. 44 divided by 5/4 is the same as 44 times 4/5 which if you simplify is 176/5. Hope this helps!
