this Is a semi easy one the answer is 21. here is how you do it.

first change 56% into a decimal which comes out to be .56 now subtract it from 100% but in decimal form which is .1.

.1-.56=.44

now you want to take that .44 and multiply it by 14 which comes out to be 6.16 but you cant have .16th of a person so lets just say its 7 people.

now add 7 to the 14 clowns and you get 21.

plz rate my answer as brainliest also feel free to add me as a friend as I am very good at this subject.
