Its 210.
For 100 its 14%
For 1500 its x
And 1500*14 = 100*x
Thus x = (1500*14)/100 = 210

Convert 14% to a decimal
14 / 100 = 0.14
Multiply 1500 by the decimal
1500 X 0.14 = 210
The answer is 210

Hope this helps you to think it through rather than just plug values into a formula:
The 1,500 must be 100%
So 1% of 1,500 = 1,500/100 = 15
So 14% is 14 times 1% which is 14 x 15 = 210

.14( ".14" is how you would type 14 % in a calculator, ".25" would be 25% if you wished to find that out and ".05" for 5%, if one were so inclined that is..) X £1500=210
.14 X £1500=£210

210
To work out a percentage, take the first figure and divide it by 100, then multiply the answer by the number you want it to be,
So 1500 / 100 = 15 x 14 = 210

Come on, you can do this.
1% of 1500 = 15
14% = 14 x 15 = 210.
Next time do your own home work.
