The answer is 20.

Solution for 5 is what percent of 25:

5: 25*100 =

(5*100): 25 =

500: 25 = 20

Now we have: 5 is what percent of 25 = 20

Question: 5 is what percent of 25?

Percentage solution with steps:

Step 1: We make the assumption that 25 is 100% since it is our output value.

Step 2: We next represent the value we seek with $x$x​.

Step 3: From step 1, it follows that $100\%=25$100%=25​.

Step 4: In the same vein, $x\%=5$x%=5​.

Step 5: This gives us a pair of simple equations:

$100\%=25(1)$100%=25(1)​.

$x\%=5(2)$x%=5(2)​.

Step 6: By simply dividing equation 1 by equation 2 and taking note of the fact that both the LHS
(left hand side) of both equations have the same unit (%); we have

$\frac{100\%}{x\%}=\frac{25}{5}$
100%
x%​=
25
5​​

Step 7: Taking the inverse (or reciprocal) of both sides yields

$\frac{x\%}{100\%}=\frac{5}{25}$
x%
100%​=
5
25​​

$\Rightarrow x=20\%$⇒x=20%​

Therefore, $5$5​ is $20\%$20%​ of $25
