what percent of 250 metres is 25 metres
Answers
Answer:
Percentage solution with steps:
Step 1: We make the assumption that 250 is 100% since it is our output value.
Step 2: We next represent the value we seek with $x$x.
Step 3: From step 1, it follows that $100\%=250$100%=250.
Step 4: In the same vein, $x\%=25$x%=25.
Step 5: This gives us a pair of simple equations:
$100\%=250(1)$100%=250(1).
$x\%=25(2)$x%=25(2).
Step 6: By simply dividing equation 1 by equation 2 and taking note of the fact that both the LHS
(left hand side) of both equations have the same unit (%); we have
$\frac{100\%}{x\%}=\frac{250}{25}$
100%
x%=
250
25
Step 7: Taking the inverse (or reciprocal) of both sides yields
$\frac{x\%}{100\%}=\frac{25}{250}$
x%
100%=
25
250
$\Rightarrow x=10\%$⇒x=10%
Therefore, $25$25 is $10\%$10% of $250$250.
