Answer:

60%

Explanation:

In questions like these, we take 74 to be the whole. As such, we express the whole as 100%. Then, we take 44.4 as just a portion of the whole. We therefore ask ourselves, what portion of the whole is 44.4.

We take 44.4 as the numerator and the whole, 74, as the denominator. We then express 44.4 as a fraction of the denominator. That is,

44.4/74

To express this as a percent, we multiply the above results by 100.

Thus, (44.4/74) x 100

= 60%
