Find what amount 125 is 25% of using the decimal approach.

Answer 1

Hmm I see. Equate here.

\(\Large \color{Black}{\Rightarrow 125 = 0.25x}\)
\(\Large \color{Black}{\Rightarrow {125 \over 0.25} = x }\)

\(\Large \color{Black}{\Rightarrow 125 \times 4 =x }\)

\(\Large \color{Black}{\Rightarrow x = 500 }\)

Answer 2

25% is the same thing as 0.25

Answer 3

If you ask why, then see, 25% = 25/100 = 0.25
