The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem "If x% of 25 is 2, then x = ____", we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Write the equation for the percentage. We know that x% of 25 can be expressed mathematically as: \[ \frac{x}{100} \times 25 = 2 \] ### Step 2: Simplify the equation. Now, we can simplify the left side of the equation: \[ \frac{25x}{100} = 2 \] ### Step 3: Eliminate the fraction. To eliminate the fraction, we can multiply both sides of the equation by 100: \[ 25x = 2 \times 100 \] \[ 25x = 200 \] ### Step 4: Solve for x. Now, we can solve for x by dividing both sides by 25: \[ x = \frac{200}{25} \] \[ x = 8 \] ### Final Answer: Thus, the value of x is: \[ x = 8 \] ---
