Answer :

Answer:

The number is 2.790697674418.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let, the number be x.

44 times of the number means 44x.

Subtracting 98 from the above, we get 44x - 98.

-22 less than the number x equals to x - (-22) = x + 22.

According to the question, 44x - 98 = x - (-22) or, 43x = 98 + 22 = 120 or, [tex]x = \frac{120}{43}[/tex] = 2.790697674418.
