Answer 2

• As per the data given in the question, we have to determine the required number.

      Given data:-$12.5\%$

      To convert:- the percentage into fraction.

      Solution:-

• A percentage is a fraction of an amount expressed as a particular number of hundredths of that amount.

• It is denoted by $\% and 1 \%means\frac{1}{100} .$

• We are using the unitary method to calculate the percentage of numbers.

• Fractions can be converted into percentages and vice-versa.

• Percentages are reversible.

      Therefore we get,

       $\Rightarrow12.5\%=\frac{12.5}{100}=\frac{12.5\times10}{100\times10}\\\Rightarrow \frac{125}{1000}=\frac{1}{8}.$

    Hence, the value will be $\frac{1}{8}.$
