Answer :

Answer: 157.5

"Of" means to multiply. When multiplying percentages by whole numbers, the percentage becomes smaller. The commonly asked question in scenarios just like this is, "what is x% of y?" where x is the percentage and y is your number you want a percentage out of. This question requires you to use multiplication, because it uses the word, "of".

[tex]\mathrm{"What}[/tex] [tex]\mathrm{is}[/tex] [tex]\mathrm{x\%}[/tex] [tex]\mathrm{of}[/tex] [tex]\mathrm{y?"}[/tex]

[tex]P = (x\% \times y)\\P = (75\% \times 210)\\p = 75\% = 0.75\\P = (0.75 \times 210)\\P = 157.5[/tex]
