    No because it is out of 60 not 100, the answer would be 0.733333333

    No, he didn't write the decimal correctly. He is basically saying that he sold 44% of the eggs he collected, not that he sold 44 of the eggs he collected.

    The correct decimal can be found by dividing 44 by 60 to get 0.73.
