Answer: 300.

Step-by-step explanation: 225/(No denominator) = 75/100.

225 doesn't go in 75. So, 75/100 divided by 5 = 15/20.

I want to find what number you multiply from 15/20 to get 225/(No

denominator). So, I divide 225 by 15. = 15, so multiply 15 x 15 = 225, and

the denominator, 20 x 15= 300.

(Sorry if you don't understand, I don't really know how to explain things.)

But here's your answer!
