Question

What number is 25% of 60?

Answer 1

We know that percentages can be written as a fraction with a denominator of 100. Therefore, 25% can be written as follows:

$\frac{25}{100}$ = $\frac{1}{4}$

Now multiply the reduced fraction by 60:

$\frac{1}{4}$ × $\frac{60}{1}$ = $\frac{60}{4}$

$\frac{60}{4}$ can be reduced to 15. Consequently, we have proven that 25% of 60 is 15.

I hope this helps!
