well, if we take 43.89 to be the 100%, what is 9.66 off of it in percentage?

[tex]\bf \begin{array}{ccllll} amount&\%\\ \text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\ 43.89&100\\ 9.66&x \end{array}\implies \cfrac{43.89}{9.66}=\cfrac{100}{x}[/tex]

solve for "x".
