Explanation

11.44 = 0.13 * (50 * 22) * (0.016 * x). 11.44 = 0.13 * 1100 * 0.016 * x. 11.44 = 143 * 0.016 * x. 11.44 = 2.288 * x. x = 11.44 / 2.288 = 5.

AI explanation

Using the percentage formula, calculate the values inside the brackets to get 13 percent of 1100, which equals 143, making the equation 11.44 equals 143 times 0.016 times x. Multiply 143 by 0.016 to get 2.288, leaving 11.44 equals 2.288 times x. Divide 11.44 by 2.288 to find x equals 5.
