Answer:

15%

Step-by-step explanation:

Since a percent is out of 100 we can make 75/500 to have the denominator of 100.

To do that you divide

500/5 = 100

and for the numerator

75/5 = 15

whatever you do to one side you must do to the other that's why I divided both sides by 5. The ending fraction would be 15/100 which is the same as 15%

Hope that helps and have a great day!
