Question

What percent of 80 is 10

Answer 1

I believe that the answer is 12.5%

Reason 100% of 80= 80,

So if 80=100%,

then that means 10=x%

Fore it means that, $x=(\frac{10}{80} )*100$%=12.5%

Answer 2

Answer:

Let the required percentage be x%.

Atq,

$\: \: \: \: \: \: \: x\% \: of80 = 10 \\ = > \frac{x}{100} \times 80 = 10 \\ = > \frac{4x}{5} =1 0 \\ = > 4x = 5 \times 10 \\ = > x = \frac{5 \times 10}{4} \\ = > x = \frac{5 \times 5}{2} \\ = > x = \frac{25}{2} \\ = > x = 12.5$

Hence, required percentage = 12.5%
