Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Percentage solution with steps:

Step 1: Our output value is 175.

Step 2: We represent the unknown value with X

Step 3: From step 1 above, 175-100%.

Step 4: Similarly, X=2.%.

Step 5: This results in a pair of simple equations:

175=100%(1).

X=2.%(2).

Step 6: By dividing equation 1 by equation 2 and noting that both the RHS (right hand side) of both

equations have the same unit (%); we have

175/X = 100% / 2.%

Step 7: Again, the reciprocal of both sides gives

X/175 = 2./100

X=3.5

Therefore, 2.% of 175 is 3.5
