Answer 2

Given: $2.5$% of a number is$15$.

We have to find the quantity.

We are solving in the following way:

We have,

$2.5$% of a number is$15$.

Let assume the number be$x$.

Then from the above statement, we can write:

$2.5\%\ of\ x=15$

Solving the above equation further we get,

$=>\frac{2.5}{100} \times x=15\\\\=>\frac{2.5x}{100} =15\\\\=>2.5x=15\times100\\\\=>x=\frac{1500}{2.5} \\\\=>x=600$

Hence, the number is$600$.
