Yes, if you are rounding the number to the nearest hundredth.

The number 14.28571429% has a 5 in its thousandths place. And if you remember the rule of rounding, if the number is 5 or more, then you round up. if the number is less than 5, then you round down.

Since the number is 5, we round up and get 14.29%
