Reading through the problem we have "60 is" that's 60 equals, "what percent" that's x over 100 or x/100, "of 250" times 250.

Cross canceling the 100 and 250, we get 2 and 5.

So now we have
60=(5x)/(2) and multiplying both sides by 2 to get rid of the fraction we get 120 = 5x.

Dividing both sides by 5 we find that 24 = x.

Hey You!

60 × 100 / 250 = 24

So, 60 is 24% of 250.
