In this case, we can create a simple ratio to find out how much is 2.5% of 7.1. We know that 100% of a number, is the number itself. Based on this information we can say:
If 100% is 7.1
Then 2.5% is X
If we cross multiply, so we will have 100 times x equal to 2.5 times 7.1.
100x=2.5*7.5
100x=18.75
Divide both sides of the equation with 100.
100x/100 = 18.75/100
x=0.1875
