Let the no. be x
7/100×x =1400

Given : Sales tax in a certain community is 7%. If the sales tax on a new car was $1400,
To Find: the selling price of the car
or $1400 is 7% of what number?
Solution:
Assume that the selling price of the car = $x
Sale tax = 7 %
Sale tax = (7/100)x = 7x/100 $
Sale tax = $ 1400
Equate Sale tax
=> 7x/100 = 1400
=> x/100 = 200
=> x = 20000
Hence selling price of the car = $20000
$1400 is 7% of $20000
