Answer:
C) 27%
Step-by-step explanation:
the easiest way to find out percentage is just to plug it into a calculator, or just start a google search... and google will handle the rest.
let me show you why 27% is correct with process of elimination
lets start with...
A) 20%
20% of 725 = 145
now subtract 145 from 725 to find the final amount
725 - 145 = 580 that's obviously not the answer you're looking for, so lets keep going.
B) 37%
37% of 725 = 268.25
725 - 268.25 = 456.75
well that's not right either...
lets try...
C) 27%
27% of 725 = 195.75
725 - 195.75 = 529.25
by trying all the answer choices, you can find your answer very simply by plugging it into google!
i hope this was helpful to you!
stay safe!!
