Answer:

25%

Explanation:

In the sentence "15 is 25% of 60.", 25% is the percentage.

15 is the partial amount and 60 is the total amount.

15/60 = .25

convert a decimal to a percentage by multiplying by 100

.25 × 100 = 25

Some people use a shortcut of moving the decimal two places to the right. This is the same as multiplying by 100.

15/60 is 25%
