To Find a Percentage of a Number
To find a percentage of a number, we can use the following formula:
Percent x Whole = Part
In this case, we want to find 0.125 (12.5%) of 100.
Let's Plug in the Numbers
- Percent: 0.125 (12.5%)
- Whole: 100
- Part: ?
Calculate the Part
To find the part, we multiply the percent by the whole:
Part = Percent x Whole = 0.125 x 100 = 12.5
So, 0.125 of 100 is 12.5
Therefore, 0.125 (12.5%) of 100 is equal to 12.5.
