    The answer is 5.6

    Step-by-step explanation:

    1. We assume, that the number 70 is 100% - because it's the output value of the task.

    2. We assume, that x is the value we are looking for.

    3. If 70 is 100%, so we can write it down as 70=100%.

    4. We know, that x is 8% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=8%.

    5. Now we have two simple equations:

    1) 70=100%

    2) x=8%

    where left sides of both of them have the same units, and both right sides have the same units, so we can do something like that:

    70/x=100%/8%

    6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

    7. Solution for what is 8% of 70

    70/x=100/8

    (70/x) * x = (100/8) * x - we multiply both sides of the equation by x

    70=12.5*x - we divide both sides of the equation by (12.5) to get x

    70/12.5=x

    5.6=x

    x=5.6

    now we have:

    8% of 70=5.6
