Answer:

28.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Translate the statement into an equation, and then solve the equation.

Let x be the number we are looking for.

155% of what number is 44?

155% of x is 44

In math "of" usually means multiplication.

155% * x = 44

To change a percent to a decimal, divide by 100 which means move the decimal point 2 places left. 155% = 155/100 = 1.55

1.55x = 44

Divide both sides by 1.55 to solve for x.

1.55x/1.55 = 44/1.55

x = 28.4

Answer: 28.4 (rounded to the nearest tenth)
