Answer:

56%

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because the question you need to ask yourself is: 14 is what percent of 25? and the way you solve that is making it 14/25 and then all percents are out of 100 so you need to change the fraction to over 100 so just multiply by 4 (because 25 x 4 is 100) and you get 56/100, which means 56%.
