It Is B.21.8%, Simple way to figure this out is round B to 20%, If 3200 equals 20% and 20% times 5 equals 100% all you do is multiply 3200 by 5.

To solve this problem, all you have to do is divide 3,200 by 25,000 and then multiply the number you get by 100 because the question asks for the percentage. Your answer is A. 12.8%
