What is 25 percent of 240?

Percent means parts out of 100, so 25 percent is one-fourth. To find 25% of a number, multiply by 0.25 or divide by 4. For 240, dividing by 4 gives 60, and 0.25 times 240 also equals 60. So 25% of 240 is 60. The other numbers would come from a different base (or a different percentage), not from 240 times 25%.
