Answer: The Answer Should Be 10! Hoped This Help! Thx For Da Points :)!!!

Step-by-step explanation: the number 125 is 100% - because it's the output value of the task. 2. We assume, that x is the value we are looking for. 3. If 125 is 100%, so we can write it down as 125=100%. 4. We know, that x is 8% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=8%. 5. Now we have two simple equations:1) 125=100%2) x=8%where left sides of both of them have the same units, and both right sides have the same units, so we can do something like that:125/x=100%/8%6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.7. Solution for what is 8% of 125125/x=100/8(125/x)*x=(100/8)*x - we multiply both sides of the equation by x125=12.5*x - we divide both sides of the equation by (12.5) to get x125/12.5=x 10=x x=10now we have: 8% of 125=10
