Answer:

75%

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the formula [tex]\frac{is}{of}=\frac{percent}{100}[/tex]

  • "of" is 5
  • "is" is 3.75
  • We will denote "percent" as x since that is what we are solving for

Now we just need to plug in the known values and solve for x

  • [tex]\frac{3.75}{5}=\frac{x}{100}[/tex]
  • Cross multiplying we get (5)(x) = (3.75)(100)
  • Then simplifying we get 5x = 375
  • Dividing by 5 we get x = 75%

$3.75 is 75% of $5
