Answer:
125%
Explanation:
1. Set up the equation
425/340 = x/100
(percentages are out of 100 so this equation means 425 out of 340 is equal to a number out of 100)
2. Cross multiply
340x = 42500
3. Solve for x
x = 125
425-340 is 85.
85 of 340 is 0.25, which means it is 25% of 240.
Since 425 is greater than 340, add 100% to the 25% you found with 85.
425 = 300 + 85
y = 100% + 25%
