Question 153239
Note: $0.25 = 25 cents and $1 = 100 cents



{{{Percent = (part/whole)*100}}} Start with the given formula.



{{{Percent = (25/100)*100}}} Plug in 25 cents for the numerator and 100 cents for the denominator



{{{Percent = (25/cross(100))*cross(100)}}} Cancel like terms



{{{Percent = 25}}} Simplify



So $0.25 is 25% of one U.S. dollar
