${\huge{\mathfrak{\orange{\fcolorbox{red}{green}{\underline{ansWer}}}}}}$

a)

25% of 1/8

$⟶ \frac{25}{100} \times \frac{1}{8} \\ ⟶ \frac{1}{4} \times \frac{1}{8} \\ ⟶ \frac{1}{32}$

b)

4.5% of 60 cm

$⟶ \frac{4.5}{100} \times 60 \\ ⟶ \frac{45}{100} \times \frac{60}{10} \\ ⟶ \frac{9}{20} \times 6 \\ ⟶9 \times \frac{3}{10} \\ ⟶ \frac{27}{10} \\ ⟶2.7$
