Find the amount in each case.

Set up a proportion:

8%/56 = 100%/x

cb

Scale factor is 12.5

700

700

Well, if 8% is equal to 56kg, then we can simply divide 56kg by 8% and find out how much each percent is worth.

But I must say, this is a tough question. Who knew percentages could weigh so much? Maybe they've been lifting weights or eating too many pies! Anyway, let's do the math.

If 8% is equal to 56kg, then 1% would be equal to 56kg divided by 8.

So, 1% is equal to 7kg.

Now, if 1% is 7kg, then we can find out the total amount by multiplying 7kg by 100%.

So, the total amount would be 7kg multiplied by 100%, which equals 700kg.

Wow, that's a lot of weight for just 8%. Maybe percentages aren't as harmless as they seem!

To find the amount in each case, we can use the formula:

Amount = Percentage * Total / 100

In this case, we are given that 8% is equal to 56kg. Let's substitute the values into the formula:

Amount = 8 * 56 / 100

Now we can calculate the amount:

Amount = 448 / 100

Amount = 4.48 kg

Therefore, the amount in each case is 4.48 kg.
