25% of 125

31.25

Because:

Percentage solution with steps:

Step 1: Our output value is 125.

Step 2: We represent the unknown value with $x$.

Step 3: From step 1 above, \($125=100\%$. \)

Step 4: Similarly, \( $x=25\%$.\)

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

\($125=100\%(1)$. \)

\($x=25\%(2)$. \)

Step 6: By dividing equation 1 by equation 2 and noting that both the right hand side of both
equations have the same unit (%); we have

\($\frac{125}{x}=\frac{100\%}{25\%}$\)

Step 7: Again, the reciprocal of both sides gives

\($\frac{x}{125}=\frac{25}{100}$ \)

\($\Rightarrow x=31.25$ \)

Therefore, \($25\%$ \)of \($125$\) is \($31.25$\)
