To find the percentage of the freshman class that are majoring in Economics, you can use the following formula:

\[
\text{Percentage} = \left( \frac{\text{Number of Economics majors}}{\text{Total number of students}} \right) \times 100
\]

From your question, we have:

- Number of Economics majors = 47254725
- Total number of students = 7500

Now, plug these values into the formula:

\[
\text{Percentage} = \left( \frac{47254725}{7500} \right) \times 100
\]

Calculating the fraction:

\[
\frac{47254725}{7500} = 6300.63
\]

Now multiply by 100 to get the percentage:

\[
\text{Percentage} = 6300.63 \times 100 = 630063
\]

This result suggests that there is an inconsistency in the numbers because the number of Economics majors exceeds the total number of students.

If you're asking for a hypothetical situation, please confirm or rectify the figures given in your question. As it stands, there cannot be 47254725 Economics majors among only 7500 students.
