Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Reason:
Let x be the required percentage. Then 25 = (x/100) × 75.
Simplify the right side: (x/100) × 75 = (75x)/100 = (3x)/4.
So 25 = (3x)/4. Multiply both sides by 4 to get 100 = 3x.
Divide by 3: x = 100/3 = 33.333...%
Answer: 33.33% (approximately 33 1/3%)
