What is 8 percent of two hundred

8% of 200

8%=0.08

In algebra, 'of' usually mean multiply.

0.08*200=16

16 is 8% of 200

1. We assume, that the number 200 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 100% equals 200, so we can write it down as 100%=200.

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

5. Now we have two simple equations:

1) 100%=200

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:

100%/x%=200/8

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

7. Solution for 8 is what percent of 200

100%/x%=200/8

(100/x) * x = (200/8) * x - we multiply both sides of the equation by x

100=25*x - we divide both sides of the equation by (25) to get x

100/25=x

4=x

x=4

now we have:

8 is 4% of 200
