Answer: 1,125

Explanation:

We have to find out what is 25% of 4,500.

Let's subtract by thousands first. We have to subtract 75% of the thousands.

4,000 - 3,000 = 1,000

Now, we have to subtract 75% of 500.

500 - 400 = 100

Now, we have to subtract 75% of 100. We currently have 1,100.

100 - 75 = 25

Add 1,100 and 25.

1,100 + 25 = 1,125

Hope this helps!
