What is 5% of 5?

Explanation:
To find a percent of a number, multiply the number by the percent written as a decimal. Five percent is 0.05, so five percent of five is 0.05 × 5 = 0.25. That’s a quarter. For perspective, 1 is twenty percent of five, 0.5 is ten percent, and 2.5 is fifty percent. The calculation here uses 5% specifically, which yields 0.25.
