Transcript text: 14 is $20 \%$ of what number? $\square$
Solution
Solution Steps
To find the number of which 14 is 20%, we can set up the equation \( 14 = 0.20 \times x \) and solve for \( x \).
Step 1: Set Up the Equation
We start with the equation that represents the problem:
\[ 14 = 0.20 \times x \]
Step 2: Solve for \( x \)
To find \( x \), we need to isolate it on one side of the equation. We do this by dividing both sides of the equation by 0.20:
\[ x = \frac{14}{0.20} \]
Step 3: Calculate the Value
Perform the division to find the value of \( x \):
\[ x = 70.0 \]
Final Answer
The number of which 14 is 20% is:
\[ \boxed{70.0} \]
