Answer 2

Answer:

Hence, value of the whole quantity will be 1000

Step-by-step explanation:

In context to question asked,

We have to determine the value of whole quantity.

As per data given in the question,

It is given that,

12.5% of the whole quantity is 125

So, let the whole quantity is x

So, we can write it as,

$12.5\%\:of\:x = 125$

Now for solving the above equation we will divide it by 100 for removing the percentage sign.

Thus we will get,

$12.5\%\:of\:x = 125\\=>\frac{12.5}{100}\times x = 125\\=>\frac{125}{100 \times 10} \times x = 125\\=>\frac{125}{1000} \times x = 125\\=>x = \frac{125 \times 1000}{125}\\=>x = 1000$
