Answer:

75%

Explanation:

15 x 5 75

---- = -------

20 x 5 100

Cent means 100, so percent literally means per 100 like in century or centennial. So, I put it into a fraction over 100. Now it is 75 per 100. If you remember, per 100 is percent, it means the answer id 75 percent. You can also write it as 75%.
