Answer: 72.7272%

Step-by-step explanation: Reading through the problem we have "96 is", that's 96 equals, "what percent" which is
(x)/(100), "of" 132, times 132.


So
we
have
96 = (x)/(100) (132)

Cross canceling the 132 and 100 to 33 and 25,

Multiply both sides by 25 to get rid of the fraction

and we have 2400 = 32x.

Dividing both sides by 32, we find that 72.7272 = x.

We should write our answer as a percent so we have 72.7272.
