Answer: 1/8

Step-by-step explanation: A percent is a ratio that compares a number to 100. So we can write 12.5% as 12.5/100.

Next, we need to get rid of the decimal. We can multiply the numerator and denominator of a fraction by the same number without changing the value of the fraction.

So to get rid of the decimal, we can multiply the numerator and the denominator of 12.5/100 by 10 and we have 125/1000.

Now, notice that 125/1000 is not in lowest terms because we can divide the numerator and the denominator by 125 to get 1/8.

So 12.5% can be written as the fraction 1/8.
