To get the solution, we are looking for, we need to point out what we know.
1. We assume, that the number 150 is 100% - because it's the output value of the task. 2. We assume, that x is the value we are looking for. 3. If 100% equals 150, so we can write it down as 100%=150. 4. We know, that x% equals 25 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=25. 5. Now we have two simple equations: 1) 100%=150 2) x%=25 where left sides of both of them have the same units, and both right sides have the same units, so we can do something like that: 100%/x%=150/25 6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.
7. Solution for 25 is what percent of 150
100%/x%=150/25 (100/x)*x=(150/25)*x - we multiply both sides of the equation by x 100=6*x - we divide both sides of the equation by (6) to get x 100/6=x 16.6666666667=x x=16.6666666667
now we have: <span>25 is 16.6666666667% of 150 </span>
Hope this Helps! Took Me Time! Have A Wonderful Day! :)
