What Percent is 500 of 2000?

We need to find what percentage 500 is of 2000.

Part (the amount we have): 500

Whole (the total): 2000

We're asking: "500 out of 2000 is how many percent?"

To find what percent one number is of another, we use:

Percentage = (Part ÷ Whole) × 100

This gives us the part as a fraction of the whole, then converts to a percentage.

Step 1: Divide the part by the whole:

Step 2: Multiply by 100 to convert to percent:

0.25 × 100 = 25%

500 is 25% of 2000.

This means if you had 2000 items and took 500 of them,

you would have 25% of the total.
