8% is 56kg?
what = 56/.08 kg
thanks this was really helpful tho!!
Step 1: Convert the percentage to a decimal by dividing it by 100. In this case, divide 8 by 100 to get 0.08.
Step 2: Set up a proportion equation. Since 8% is equal to 56kg, you can write the proportion as:
0.08/1 = 56/x
Step 3: Cross-multiply and solve for x. Multiply 0.08 by x on the left side of the equation and 1 by 56 on the right side:
0.08x = 56
Step 4: Divide both sides of the equation by 0.08 to isolate x:
x = 56 / 0.08
Step 5: Perform the division to get the value of x:
x ≈ 700
Therefore, 8% of some number (x) is approximately equal to 700.
