Rachael Sanford · Answer 1

28%

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find percentage of:

7 out of 25 people

This can be found by dividing 7 by 25 and multiplying the result by 100. This is how we find percentage one number is of another.

So,

7/25 = 0.28

Now, multiplying by 100:

0.28 * 100 = 28

So, that is 28% of the people
