Answer:

X is 2413.636363 (repeating)

Explanation:

Easy explanation

To find the percent of a value, you multiply the percent by the value (x * 0.044)

To find the whole value of a percent, you divide the percentage by the value given.

Hard Explanation

The equation of this question is written out like this:

X * 0.044 = 106.2

Isolate the variable by dividing by both sides 0.044

X=2413.6363 (repeating)
