Answer:

100

Explanation:

25% can also be converted to 0.25

if you want to INCREASE it by 25%, you're adding 25% to your current 100% to get 125% of 80

125% is the same as 1.25, so you multiply 80 by 1.25

80 * 1.25 = 100

Answer:

100

Explanation:

To increase 80 by 25%, you need to add 25% of 80 to 80.

First, we find what 25% of 80 is.

To find a percent of a number, multiply the percent by the number.

Change the percent to a decimal by dividing the percent by 100.

25% of 80 = 25% × 80 = 25/100 × 80 = 0.25 × 80 = 20

25% of 80 is 20.

Now we add 20 to 80.

80 + 20 = 100

Answer: 100
