Answer :
it is 40
14=0.35
divide both sides by 0.35
14/0.35=40
14 is 35% of 40
14=0.35
divide both sides by 0.35
14/0.35=40
14 is 35% of 40
'is' is an equal sign
35% = 35/100 = 0.35
'of' is multiplication
'what number' is 'x'
So we have:
[tex]\sf14=0.35\cdot~\!\!\!\!~x[/tex]
Multiply:
[tex]\sf14=0.35x[/tex]
Divide 0.35 to both sides:
[tex]\sf~x=40[/tex]
35% = 35/100 = 0.35
'of' is multiplication
'what number' is 'x'
So we have:
[tex]\sf14=0.35\cdot~\!\!\!\!~x[/tex]
Multiply:
[tex]\sf14=0.35x[/tex]
Divide 0.35 to both sides:
[tex]\sf~x=40[/tex]
