Explanation

To determine what percentage 75 is of 300, use the formula (part/whole) × 100. Here, the part is 75, and the whole is 300. So, (75/300) × 100 = 25%. Therefore, 25% of 300 is 75, making Option A correct. Option B (50%) is incorrect because 50% of 300 is 150. Option C (75%) is incorrect because 75% of 300 is 225. Option D (225%) is incorrect because 225% of 300 is 675.
