Answer:

15.7 percent of 80 = 12.56

Explanation:

Percentage solution with steps:

Step 1: Our output value is 80.

Step 2: We represent the unknown value with $x$.

Step 3: From step 1 above,$80=100\%$

Step 4: Similarly, $x=15.7\%$.

Step 5: This results in a pair of simple equations:

$80=100\%(1)$.

$x=15.7\%(2)$.

Step 6: By dividing equation 1 by equation 2 and noting that both the RHS (right hand side) of both

equations have the same unit (%); we have

$\frac{80}{x}=\frac{100\%}{15.7\%}$

Step 7: Again, the reciprocal of both sides gives

$\frac{x}{80}=\frac{15.7}{100}$

$\Rightarrow x=12.56$

Therefore, $15.7\%$ of $80$ is $12.56$
