Question

What percent of 25 is 55? The answer is….. %

Answer 1

55 ÷ 25 × 100 and you will get your answer which is 220

Answer 2

We need to find x% of 25 = 55

Change x% to a usual value by dividing it by 100

x% = x/100

`(x)/(100)*25=55`

Multiply both sides by 100

`\begin{gathered} (x)/(100)(100)*25=55*100 \\ x*25=5500 \\ 25x=500 \end{gathered}`

Divide both sides by 25

`\begin{gathered} (25x)/(25)=(5500)/(25) \\ x=220 \end{gathered}`

Then the answer is

220% of 25 is 55
