$150$ $150$

Using the rule for percentages

$x %$ $x%$ of $y = \frac{x \cdot y}{100}$ $y = (x * y) / 100$

then

$60 %$ $60%$ of $250 = \frac{60 \cdot 250}{100} = 25 \cdot 6 = 150$ $250 = (60 * 250) / 100 = 25 * 6 = 150$

$please have a look at the solution.$ $"please have a look at the solution."$

$let the 60% of 250 be 'x'.$ $"let the 60% of 250 be 'x'."$

$x = 250 \cdot \frac{60}{100}$ $x=250*(60)/(100)$

$x=25cancel(0)*(6cancel(0))/(1cancel(0)cancel(0))$

$x=25*6/1$

$x=25*6$

$x=150$
