One way to do this problem is to turn it into an equation.

Let x be the percent of 9 that is 2.25.

This means 9x=2.25

Now solve for x by dividing 2.25 by 9

and you have .25 so it is 25%

You might also note that 2.25 +2.25 is 4.5 and 4.5+4.5=9

Or simply 2.25x4=9

This tells you that 2.25 is 1/4 or 9 and 1/4 is equivalent to 25%.

Lastly, there is trial and error. 50% is 1/2 and 1/2 of 9 is 4.5. Now note that this is 2x 2.25 so this tells you the answer is 25%
