First translate the question into an equation.
"What percent" means x/100, "of 40" means times 40, "is 14" equals 14.
So we have (x)(40) = 14 or 40x = 14.
Dividing both sides by 40, we find that x = 0.35.
Now, we want to write our answer as a percent.
So we move the decimal 2 places to the right and we have 35%.
Answer:
31.2 lbs
Step-by-step explanation:
Let 2x = weight of oranges
5x = weight of apples
6x = weight of pears
2x + 5x + 6x = total weight
2x = 4.8
x = 2.4
4.8 + 5(2.4) + 6(2.4) = 4.8 + 12 + 14.4
= 31.2 lbs
