14.5% = 0.145
Step-by-step explanation:
The term 'percent' (%) actually means per 100. So when you say 14.5% it means 14.5 per 100. So when you put that into an equation it actually means:
So when you solve it, 14.5% is actually 0.145 and not 14.5.
Your friend is then incorrect because:

Answer:
4x-7
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for x:
180 = 44 + 3x - 11 + 4x - 7
Combine like terms: 180 = 26 + 7x
Simplify: 154 = 7x
Simplify: 22 = x
Substitute: 3(22) - 11 = 55 and 4(22) - 7 = 81
Create inequality: 44 < 55 < 81
