So,

To find the percent of SUV's out of the total number of cars, simply divide the number of SUV's by the total number of cars and simplify.

[tex] \frac{75}{250} = \frac{3*5*5}{2*5*5*5}=\frac{3}{2*5}=\frac{3}{10}[/tex]

This equals 0.3.

Now, convert 0.3 to a percent by moving the decimal point two places to the right and adding a percent sign.

0.3 --> 30%

30% of the cars at the dealership were SUV's.

There are 250 vehicles at the dealership. 75 of the vehicles at the dealership were SUV's.

We can find out the percent of SUV's by turning it into a fraction. [tex]\frac{75}{250}[/tex] represents the number of SUV's out of all the cars at the dealership. We can reduce [tex]\frac{75}{200}[/tex] to [tex]\frac{3}{10}[/tex] by dividing both the numerator and denominator by the greatest common factor of 75 and 250 using 25.

3 ÷ 10 ≈ 0.3

0.3 × 100 ≈ 30%

Therefore, 30% of the vehicles at the dealership were SUV's.
