Step-by-step explanation:

To work out the answer, we will simply use the formula:


(as)/(of)*100\text{ \%}

So, we can simply look out for the part of the question that includes the words as and of

We are asked to express 0.92 as a fraction of 1.03


\begin{gathered} so\text{ that} \\ as\text{ =0.92} \\ of=1.03 \end{gathered}

Thus


(0.92)/(1.03)*100\text{ \%=89.32 \%}

Therefore, the answer is 89.32%
