14% of 81 is what number?

Sagot :

"of" means multiply, so take 14% (or .14) times 81. 
11.34
You can check by knowing that 10% (or 1/10th) of 81 is 8.1, so this is a logical answer. 

Let

x--------> the number

we know that

[tex]14\%=\frac{14}{100}=0.14[/tex]

[tex]x=0.14*81\\x= 11.34[/tex]

therefore

the answer is

[tex]11.34[/tex]
