15% of 25 is the greatest of the two.

Answer:

25% of 15 is 3.75

15% of 25 is also 3.75

15 - 3.75 = 11.25

25 - 3.75 =21.25

Compare and then determine.

11.25 < 21.25

Answer: 25% x 15=25/100 x 15=.25 x 15=3.75

15% x 25=15/100 x 25=.15 x 25=3.75

Now you can clearly see that they are the same.

Isn’t it just 5? Why would it say check all that apply

LenKa [72]

Answer: $25^\frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

25 = 5*5 or -5 * -5

yes, that is correct. However, you forgot another property of roots. Roots are simply exponential fractions.

$\sqrt[n]{x^m}=x^\frac{m}{n}$

Therefore, $\sqrt{25}$ can also be rewritten as: $25^\frac{1}{2}$ . Notice that it cannot be -25 because that would be a negative square root which will give us an imaginary number.
