You can put this solution on YOUR website!
1) First convert percent into fraction so 8%=0.08=8/100 now you get 22 3/(8/100)
2) Next simplify 3/(8/100) by inverse operation. so 3/(8/100)=3 *100/8 this would be 300/8
3) Then simplify 300/8 which is 37 and 1/2
4) lastly don't forget to add the whole numbers together. 22+37=59
The final answer all put together is 59 and 1/2
