if 5% is $14.80 how much is 100%
if 5% is 14.8
then
100% is x
x=(100*14.8)/5
x=$${\frac{\left({\mathtt{100}}{\mathtt{\,\times\,}}{\mathtt{14.8}}\right)}{{\mathtt{5}}}} = {\mathtt{296}}$$
If 5% is 14.80 then
1% would be 14.80/5
and
100% must be 100*14.80/5
Here's another way to figure this without using much math....
100% is 20 times 5%
So....what is 20 times $14.80.....???
