Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]\frac{percent}{100} = \frac{the .percent. of. that. number}{the .number}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{20}{100} =\frac{x}{70}[/tex]
Now let's solve.
[tex]\frac{20}{100} =\frac{x}{70}\\1400=100x\\x=14[/tex](Cross multiply)
You could also multiply 70 by 0.2, which is the equivalent of 20% and get 14.
