The first step is to write 8. as a fraction of 20., which is simply
8/20
Now we need to multiply the numerator and denominator of the fraction by 1 to get rid of the decimals :
8/20 = 8/20 x 1/1 = 8/20
In order to find the simplest form of the fraction 8/20 we cancel out the greatest common divisor of 8 and 20, which is 4 :
8/20 = 2/5
Now we just need to convert this fraction to a percentage :
2/5 = 40%
So we have the final answer :
8. is 40% of 20.

$8 = 40% of $20 because of fact 10% of $20 is $2, because of fact 20 / 10 = 2 then we would desire to continually get 10% to equivalent %40 - which equals x4 definite? (10 x 4 = 40(40%) so we situations $2 (10%) with the aid of four (so it equals 40%) which leaves us with 8 meaning $8 is 40% of $20

If you cannot come up with an answer to algebra this basic, you will not be able to learn mathematics. Yahoo! Answers will not help you; the one who can is your teacher.
