based off what the question is asking for, lets assume that 15 is 100% -- so we get these 2 pretty simple equations$ 100\% =15  $ and $  x\%=0.75  $

so from here, we turn that into 2 fractions, so we can use the rule of 3

$ \frac{   15   }{ 0.75   } = \frac{   100\%   }{  x\%   }   $

can you finish the rest?
