The question is an illustration of bearing (i.e. angles) and distance (i.e. lengths)
The distance between both lighthouses is 5783.96 m
I've added an attachment that represents the scenario.
From the attachment, we have:
Convert to degrees
Convert to degrees
So, the measure of angle S is:
---- Sum of angles in a triangle
The required distance is distance AB
This is calculated using the following sine formula:
Where:
So, we have:
Make AB the subject
Hence, the distance between both lighthouses is 5783.96 m

'is' in mathematics means the equal sign
'of' in mathematics means the multiplication sign
the number can be any variable you chose it to be
Divide both sides by 28
Multiply by 100 on both sides to isolate 'x'
14 is 28% of 200
