Answer:

8 m

Explanation:

finding a percent means dividing the number (80) by the percentage (10)

whenever dividing by 10s, 100s, etc you move the decimal point to the left for every 0. just as the same rules with multiplying but to the right.

80/10 = 8

another way to do this without dividing to simplify is to reduce

since there is a zero (0) on both the numerator and denominator in the same spot (ones, 1s) you can simply take away both zeros

8/1 = 8

your answer is 8 m

hope this helps:)
