Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Given : 8%
To find the decimal value of the percentage number
Remove the percentage symbol with 100 in the denominator
gives

Now taking the numerator to the decimal place equal to the number of zeros in the denominator or simply divide denominator with numerator.
Gives = 
So, the decimal equivalent of the given value is 
8.7/2=q/4
multiply both sides by 4: q=8.7/2*4
multiply both sides by 2: 2q=8.7 times 4
refine the equation: 2q=34.8
multiply both sides by 10: 20q=348
Divide both sides by 20: 20q/20=348/20
refine the equation for the final answer: q=87/5

Example:
5w - five apples
8 - eight strawberries
5w + 8 = (five apples) + (eight strawberries) = 13 of what?
