What is 250% of 1000?

We need to find 250% of 1000.

The word "percent" means "per hundred" or "out of 100".

So 250% means 250 out of every 100.

To calculate with percentages, we first convert to a decimal.

Divide the percentage by 100:

This means 250% = 2.5

Now multiply the decimal by the number:

2.5 × 1000 = 2500

So 250% of 1000 = 2500

You can also think of it as a fraction:

250% of 1000 = (250/100) × 1000

= (250 × 1000) / 100

= 250000 / 100

= 2500
