Given parameters:

Force on the object = 300N

Mass of object = 25kg

Unknown:

Acceleration = ?

Solution:

According to Newton's second law of motion, force is a product of mass and acceleration.

Force = mass x acceleration

Input the parameters and solve for the acceleration;

300 = 25 x acceleration

Acceleration = 12m/s²

The acceleration is 12m/s²
