Solution

Sure, let's solve this step by step.

  1. First, we set up the proportion. In this case, we're trying to find what number (let's call it 'a') is 68% of 25. We can express this as a proportion like this: a/25 = 68/100.

  2. Next, we solve the proportion. To do this, we can cross-multiply:

    a * 100 = 25 * 68

  3. Then, we simplify the right side of the equation:

    a * 100 = 1700

  4. Finally, we solve for 'a' by dividing both sides of the equation by 100:

    a = 1700 / 100

    a = 17

So, 68% of 25 is 17.
