87 percent of 73 is greater than 73 percent of 87.

This is correct because 73 percent of 87 is less than one whole and 87 percent of 73 is MORE than 1 hole.

$\text{Hello there! :]}$

$\large\boxed{125 \text { vases}}$

$\text{To solve, find the proportion of successes from the total:}\\\\20 / 25 = 4 / 5\\\\\text{Set up a proportion to find the # of vases necessary to complete 100 successfully:}\\\\\frac{20}{25} = \frac{100}{x} \\\\\text{Cross multiply to solve:}\\\\20 * x = 100 * 25\\\\20x = 2500\\\\\text{Divide both sides by 20:}\\\\x = 125 \text{ vases}$
