8 % of students play on a softball team means that 8 % of total students play on softball team

Therefore, number of students play on softball team is given as:

`\rightarrow 8 \% \text{ of } 25\\\\\rightarrow 8 \% * 25\\\\\rightarrow (8)/(100) * 25\\\\\rightarrow (8)/(4) = 2`

Thus 2 students play on the softball team
