Given data:

The amount of cake Percy prepared after working 5 hours is 22 kg.

The expression for the given statement is,

$\begin{gathered} 22\operatorname{kg}\text{ =5 hours} \\ 1\operatorname{kg}\text{ =}(5)/(22)\text{ hours} \end{gathered}$

Multiplied the above expression by 35.2 on both sides.

$\begin{gathered} 35.2(\text{ 1 kg)=35.2(}(5)/(22)\text{ hours)} \\ 35.2\text{ kg= 8 hours} \end{gathered}$

Thus, Percy need 8 hours to prepare 35.2 kg cake.
