To find what the number is, we need to set up proportional fractions.
Currently, we have 8% of a number is 20.
To set up our fractions, put 100% under 8% as a fraction first.
It should look like this: 8/100 (hint: per-cent means per-hundred).
Now, we have 20 out of a number, x. This is because we are claiming that 20 is 8% of a number (if we just reword the question without changing the concept).
It should look like this: 20/x.
Our proportional fractions are:
20/x = 8/100.
To solve for this, we need to cross-multiply the denominator of 8/100 (bottom number, 100) with the numerator of 20/x (top number, 20).
This product equation should look like this:
20 x 100 (when simplified, we get 2000).
Now, we need to cross multiply the numerator of 8/100 (top number, 8) with the denominator of 20/x (bottom number, x).
This product equation should look like this:
8x.
Now that we've cross-multiplied, set our two products as an equation.
8x = 2000.
To solve for x, divide both sides by 8 (remember, what you do to one side of an equation, you must do it to the other).
8x / 8 = x
2000 / 8 = 250.
x = 250
Your final answer is:
8% of 250 is 20.
I hope this helps!

Answer:
Option A = 7.5 cups
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : Suppose you're making a soup that uses 5 cups of chicken broth and 
teaspoons of corn starch for 8 servings. You need to make 12 servings of the soup, so you'll need 
teaspoons of corn starch.
To find : How much broth do you need?
Solution :
A soup that uses 5 cups of chicken broth and teaspoons of corn starch for 8 servings.
i.e. 5 cups + teaspoon = 8 servings ......(1)
You need to make 12 servings of the soup, so you'll need 
i.e. x cups +
teaspoon = 12 servings ........(2)
So, First we find the ratio
Ratio is 
So to equal the ratio multiply (1) by 
cups + 
teaspoon = 
servings
cups + teaspoon = 12 servings
On comparing with (2),
The value of x is .
Therefore, The broth do we need is 
cups.
So, Option A is correct.
Answer:
The answer is 80.
Step-by-step explanation:
Firstly we add all of the stamps
118+83+4=205
She put 125 in first album so we have
205-125=80 stamps left
These 80 she needs to put in another album
