You want to know the answer to this question: what is 8.5 percent of 10? Here is a very simple step-by-step guide to find out.
Step 1: A percentage is a number or ratio expressed as a fraction of 100.
\(8.5\%\) = \(8.5 \over 100 \) = \(0.085\)

• \(X = 10\)
• \(P\% = 8.5\%\) = \(8.5 \over 100 \) = \(0.085\)
\(Answer: 10 \cdot 8.5\%\) = \(10 \cdot 0.085\) = \(0.85\)
• \(X = 10\)
• \(P\% = 8.5\%\) = \(8.5 \over 100 \) = \(0.085\)
\(Answer: 10 \cdot 8.5\%\) = \(10 \cdot 0.085\) = \(0.85\)
