Hi there, 14/10*x=56, So, 14/10*10/14*x=56*10/14. 1*x=56/10÷14. 56*10=560 so it would be 560/14. 560/14=40. Therefore, the answer is x=40. Hoped I helped. :)

140% = 1,4 = 14/10
14/10 * x = 56 |(*10/14)
14/10 * 10/14 * x = 56 * 10/14 14/10 * 10/14 => 1
1 * x = (56*10)/14
x = 560/14
x = 40

Answer: 40
