explanation: 25% of 900 is 225

Answer 2

Answer:

225 Teenagers

Step-by-step explanation:

25 percent *900 =

( 25:100)*900 =

( 25*900):100 =

22500:100 = 225

Now we have: 25 percent of 900 = 225

Question: What is 25 percent of 900?

Percentage solution with steps:

Step 1: Our output value is 900.

Step 2: We represent the unknown value with x.

Step 3: From step 1 above, 900 = 100%

Step 4: Similarly, x = 25%

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

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

$\frac{900}{x}$  = $\frac{100}{25}$

Step 7: Again, the reciprocal of both sides gives

$\frac{x}{900}$ =$\frac{100}{25}$  %

⇒  x = 225

Therefore, 25% of 900 is 225

Hope this helped!
