Best Answer

15% of ? = $140

Set it up as an equation by changing the percent into a decimal.

.15x=140

So, divide both sides by .15. This will cancel out .15 on the left side of the equation, leaving x alone. The right side will be 140/.15 which equals 933.33

Your new equation is x=933.33

Now change that into money, and your answer is $933.33
