Answer:

33.33

Explanations:

Let the required percentage value be "x".

44 is what percent of 132 is expressed as:


44=x\%\text{ of 132}

Simplify the equation to geet the values of "x"


\begin{gathered} 44=(x)/(100)*132 \\ 44=0.01x*132 \\ 44=1.32x \end{gathered}

Divide both sides by 0.32 to have:


\begin{gathered} 1.32x=44 \\ \frac{\cancel{1.32}x}{\cancel{1.32}}=(44)/(1.32) \\ x=(44)/(1.32) \\ x\approx33.33 \end{gathered}
