What percentage of 300 is 75?
Correct answer: A. 25%
- A. 25%
- B. 50%
- C. 75%
- D. 225%
Explanation
To determine what percentage 75 is of 300, use the formula (part/whole) × 100. Here, the part is 75, and the whole is 300. So, (75/300) × 100 = 25%. Therefore, 25% of 300 is 75, making Option A correct. Option B (50%) is incorrect because 50% of 300 is 150. Option C (75%) is incorrect because 75% of 300 is 225. Option D (225%) is incorrect because 225% of 300 is 675.

About Quantitative Reasoning
Quantitative reasoning applies arithmetic and basic algebra to numerical relationships, including percentages, ratios, averages, fractions, proportions, profit and loss, rates, time, work and measurement. Questions focus on translating words into equations, choosing an efficient method and checking whether the result is numerically reasonable.
