Determine what number's 25% is 75.

Solution:

In order to determine the number, we simply need to divide 75 by the decimal value of 25%. To do so we must first convert the percentage to decimal.  In converting a percentage into decimal, divide the percentage by 100, hence in converting a decimal to percentage, multiply the percentage by 100.

= 25/100

= 0.25

= 75/0.25

= 300

Final answer:

= 300
