To find out what percent 14 is of 200, you can set up a proportion. Start by writing the proportion as x/100 = 14/200.
Next, cross-multiply to solve for x by multiplying 100 and 14, which gives you 1400.
Now, divide both sides of the equation by 200 to isolate x. So, x = 1400/200 = 7.
Thus, 14 is 7 percent of 200.
To verify this, you can multiply 0.07 (which is 7 percent in decimal form) by 200 to get 14. So, 0.07 * 200 = 14.
Therefore, the answer is correct.
