We have 500 = 100% and X = 2.5%. So our fraction will look like:

500
X
=
100%
2.5%

Now we can solve our fraction by writing it as an equation:

X = (500 × 2.5) ÷ 100

=

X = 1250 ÷ 100

=

X = 12.5

Therefore, 2.5% of 500 is 12.5

Another way to solve our problem is to find the value of 1% of the number and then multiply it by the number of percent (2.5). To find 1% of a number 500 you need to divide it by 100:

X = (500 ÷ 100) × 2.5
