Answer 1

Answer:

250

Step-by-step explanation:

1. convert from percentage to decimal

to do this, divide the percentage by 100

1.11 / 100 = 0.0111

2. multiply the decimal by the amount

decimal = 0.0111

amount = 22500

final answer = 0.0111 * 22500 = 249.75 ≈ 250

thus, 1.11 % of 22,500 = 0.0111 * 22500 ≈ 22500
