Answer:
15% of 25
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following questions:
25% of 15
15% of 25
We find the answer by using the formula to calculate percentage for both questions.
Question one:
[tex]\frac{p\times n}{100}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{25\times15}{100} =25\times15=375\div100=3.75[/tex]
[tex]=3.75[/tex]
25% of 15 is 3.75
Question two:
[tex]\frac{p\times n}{100}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{15\times 25}{100}=15\times25=375\div100=3.75[/tex]
[tex]=3.75[/tex]
15% of 25 is 3.75
Finally:
[tex]3.75=3.75[/tex]
[tex]15-3.75=11.25[/tex]
[tex]25-3.75=21.25[/tex]
[tex]11.25 < 21.25[/tex]
Which means 15% of 25 is "greater than" 25% of 15.
Hope this helps.
