The 25% of 60 is 15.

We first need to set this word as a ratio to enable us to calculate the percent:

[tex]15 / 60 = X / 100[/tex]

We then do cross-multiplication:

[tex]60 * X = 1500\\60X / 60 = 1500/60\\X = 1500/60\\X = 25[/tex]

So, the percentage is 25%

In conclusion, the 25 percent of 60 is 15.
