Answer:

$400.

Explanation:

I use fractions when it comes to percentages. Is over Of, times % over 100. So I would multiply 264 by 100, which equals 26,400. Then I'd do 66 time x which equals 66x. Since you want to get x by itself, you will divide the 2 number by 66. 66 divided by 66=0.And 26,400 divided by 66 equals 400. So 264 is 66% if 400.
