Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If half a number is 120, then the number before it was cut in half is 240. What we need to find now is 14% of 240.

"14% of 240 is what" in an algebraic equation looks like this:

Answer:

33.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x.

50% × x = 120

0.5x = 120

x = 120/0.5

x = 240

The number is 240.

14% × 240

0.14 × 240

= 33.6
