Just see :

125 --> 100%
10 ----> x%

We have a simple proportion, x/100 = 10/125 => x = 1000/125 = 8%

Every word in this question can be translated into mathematics.

replace "what" with x
replace "percent" with /100
replace "of" with *
replace "is" with =

x/100*125=10

then solve the equation for x.

Basically, you seek what number out of 100 is equivalent to 10 out of 25.

10/125 = x/100

n x 700 = 40 n = 2/35 that query doesnt make any sense... i think of you propose seventy one is seventy 5% of what selection.. if so, seventy one = .seventy 5 x n n x ninety = 3.9 as quickly as you get the selection,pass the decimals over to the left two times ie: .seventy 5 = seventy 5% 4(.8) - -one million.4 3.2 + one million.4 4.6
