Answer:
140
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the number that 332.5 is 237.5% of.
According to the formula for percentage,
[tex]\text{Percentage} = \frac{\text{Given Value}}{\text{Total Value}} \times 100[/tex]
We can substitute x, as well as the given values, into the formula and solve for x.
[tex]237.5 = \frac{332.5}x \times 100 \text{ // Divide by 100}\\\\2.375 = \frac{332.5}x \text{ // Multiply by x}\\\\2.375x = 332.5 \text{ // Divide by 2.375}\\\\x = \frac{332.5}{2.375} = 140[/tex]
