Answer:

Explanation:

28% equals 0.28 in decimal form, and 28/100 in fraction form.

Now, to multiply this fraction 28/100 by 80, for simplicity, 28/100 must be reduced to its lowest form. So we divide 28/100 by 4/4. We get 7/25.

7/25 * 80 , we get, divide 5 in 25 and 80, as 5 is lowest common multiple.

GET 7/5 * 16. Now 16 * 7 = 112.

WE ARE NOW AT 112/5, and with long multiplication, we get 22, remainder 2. remainder 2/5 which is the diviser.

THE ANSWER IS THEREFORE 22 + 2/5. WHICH IS 22.4
