s = 71.6
____________
0.75 - 5/8s = 44
3/4 - 5/8s = 44
3/4 - 3/4 + 5/8s = 44 + 3/4
5/8s = 44 3/4
5/8s / 5/8 = 44 3/4 / 5/8
s= (179/4 / 5/8)
s= (179/4 * 8/5)
s= (179/1 * 2/5)
s= (358/5)
s= (350/5 + 8/5)
s= (70 + 8/5)
s= (70 + 1 + 3/5)
s= 71 3/5
s= 71.6
I checked this and its correct :P Sorry about the late answer, hope this helps!
