Answer 1

To find the total space on the memory card when it is 8% full with 1.2 GB of data, we can set up the equation:

Let \( x \) be the total space on the card.

Since 1.2 GB represents 8% of the total space, we can write the equation as:

\[ 0.08x = 1.2 \]

Now, we can solve for \( x \):

\[ x = \frac{1.2}{0.08} = 15 \]

Thus, the total space on the card is 15 GB.
