Harrison Grant · Answer 1

To solve this you need to change 5% into a decimal, or 0.05. Then you need to multiply 714 by 0.05, which is 35.7. Now you know what 5% of 714 is. Next, you need to add 35.7 to 714. The answer would be 749.7.

Ramon Bridges · Answer 2

714*1.05=749.7

The final answer is 749.7
