Question

What percent of 8 is 6? pls give a detailed explanation thanks

Answer 1

x/100 x 8 = 6

8x/100 = 6

x100 x100

8x = 600

Divide by 8 on both sides:

X = 75

Consider a percent out of 100. 'Of' meaning multiplication. 'is' meaning equal to that number.

(unknown number/percent)x/100 x 8(of 8) = 6(is 6)
