Answer 2

Answer:

7500

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call that 'whole' a variable 'x'.

Since 75 is 1% of the whole, we can write this out with numbers and symbols, remembering that 1% of a number is 0.01 times that number

75 = 0.01*x

From there, you can divide both side of the equals sign by 0.01 to find x.

75=0.01x

7500 =x
