The first number is 80% of the second number, not 75%, hence, Brad is wrong.
<h3>What is the percentage?</h3>
The percentage is a ratio that can be expressed as a fraction of 100.
Given that, a second number is 125% of the first number.
Let the first number be 100, then the second number will be:
125% of 100
= (125/100) × 100
= 125
Now, divide the first number, 100, by the second number, 125, and then multiply with 100 to know how much % the first number is of the second number:
(100/125) ×100%
=80%
Therefore, the first number is 80% of the second number, not 75%.
Hence, Brad is wrong.
