Answer = C. 0.62%

\(\frac{6.2}{1000} * 100\)

\(= \frac{6.2}{10}\)

\(= 0.62\%\)

10% of 1000 is 100.
6.2 is way less than 100 (10% of 1000).So it cannot be 62% of 1000. eliminate option a

1% of 1000 is 10.
6.2 is less than 10. So it cant be 6.2%.eliminate option b

(0.5%) i.e. half of 1% of 1000 is 5.
but 6.2 is greater than 5..
So it has to be greater than 0.5%...hence answer is 0.62%, option c

Top Contributor
Convert the statement 6.2 is what percent of 1000 into an equation as

6.2 = x% * 1000

=> 6.2 = x/100 * 1000

=>x= 6.2 * 100 / 1000

=>x = 6.2/10

=0.62 %

(option b)
