    Multiply:  $500 * 0.06 = tax
Add the tax to the cost of the item to find the total cost.

    Divide:  14 by 25.
Then multiply by 100 because percent means the number out of 100.
Or you can just move the decimal point two places to the right to get the percentage.

    You could set this up as a proportion and cross multiply.
2/10 = n/15
2*15 = 10n
30 = 10n
3 = n
    
2/10 = n/15
2*15 = 10n
30 = 10n
3 = n

    SO the answear would be 2/10 = 30/15
because 2*15= 30
    
because 2*15= 30

    Bryan -- I showed you how to solve this problem.  
2/10 = n/15
2*15 = 10n
30 = 10n <<Divide both sides of the equation by 10.
3 = n
    
2/10 = n/15
2*15 = 10n
30 = 10n <<Divide both sides of the equation by 10.
3 = n
