Solve p/25*80%=14

$$\frac { p } { 25 } \times 80 \% = 14$$

Solve for p

$$p = \frac{875}{2} = 437\frac{1}{2} = 437.5$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Multiply both sides of the equation by 100, the least common multiple of 25,100.

$$4p\times \frac{80}{100}=1400$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{80}{100} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 20.

$$4p\times \frac{4}{5}=1400$$

Express 4\times \frac{4}{5} as a single fraction.

$$\frac{4\times 4}{5}p=1400$$

Multiply 4 and 4 to get 16.

$$\frac{16}{5}p=1400$$

Multiply both sides by \frac{5}{16}, the reciprocal of \frac{16}{5}.

$$p=1400\times \frac{5}{16}$$

Express 1400\times \frac{5}{16} as a single fraction.

$$p=\frac{1400\times 5}{16}$$

Multiply 1400 and 5 to get 7000.

$$p=\frac{7000}{16}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{7000}{16} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 8.

$$p=\frac{875}{2}$$
