Answer:

70

Explanation:

140% of 50

140% = 140/100

140/100= 1.4

of is the key word in math meaning multiplication (·)

Meaning, we are multiplying in this scenario so,

1.4·50

You can do this two ways

1.4·50= 70

OR

1.4·(50/10)·10

1.4·5·10

1.4·50= 70; The same result

Hope this helps you!

Have a good evening! :)
