Detailed Solution

Concept: Converting the percentage into fractions. For converting the percentage into fractions, we need to divide the given percentage number by 100. Suppose we are given a% then the fraction will be

\frac{a}{100}

.[11]
We have to determine the value of 15% of 15.
So first lets convert 15% into fraction i.e.

\frac{15}{100}

.
Now for finding the value of 15% of 15, we will multiply the fraction with the given number.
15 % of 15
⇒

\frac{15}{100} \times

15
⇒

\frac{3}{20}

\times

15 ( cancelling out by 5)
⇒

\frac{3}{4} \times

3 ( cancelling out by 5)
⇒

\frac{9}{4}

⇒ 2.25
Hence, the correct answer is option 2.
