6. What is $10\%$ of $90$?

   $9$. Calculate $10\%$ as $0.1$ and multiply by $90$ to find the part of the whole.

7. What is $2.5\%$ of $80$?

   $2$. Calculate $2.5\%$ as $0.025$ and multiply by $80$ to find the part of the whole.

8. What percent is equivalent to the decimal $0.08$?

   $8\%$. Convert a decimal to its percentage equivalent by multiplying by 100, so $0.08 \times 100 = 8$.

9. What decimal is equivalent to $25\%$?

   $0.25$. Convert a percentage to its decimal equivalent by dividing by 100, so $25\div 100 = 0.25$.

10. What decimal is equivalent to $5\%$?

    $0.05$. Convert a percentage to its decimal equivalent by dividing by 100, so $5\div 100 = 0.05$.

11. What is $40\%$ of $120$?

    $48$. Calculate $40\%$ as $0.4$ and multiply by $120$ to find the part of the whole.

12. What decimal is equivalent to $12\%$?

    $0.12$. Convert a percentage to its decimal equivalent by dividing by 100, so $12\div 100 = 0.12$.

13. What is $25\%$ of $64$?

    $16$. Calculate $25\%$ as $0.25$ and multiply by $64$ to find the part of the whole.

14. Find and correct the mistake: $30\%$ of $50 = 30 \times 50$.

    Correct: $\frac{30}{100} \times 50$. The mistake is multiplying directly without converting the percentage to a decimal or fraction; divide by 100 first to find the correct part.

15. What is $30\%$ of $90$?

    $27$. Calculate $30\%$ as $0.3$ and multiply by $90$ to find the part of the whole.

16. What percent is equivalent to the fraction $\frac{1}{5}$?

    $20\%$. Convert a fraction to a percentage by dividing the numerator by the denominator and multiplying by 100, so $(1\div 5) \times 100 = 20$.

17. What is $125\%$ of $48$?

    $60$. Calculate $125\%$ as $1.25$ and multiply by $48$ to find the value exceeding the whole.

18. What percent is equivalent to the fraction $\frac{3}{4}$?

    $75\%$. Convert a fraction to a percentage by dividing the numerator by the denominator and multiplying by 100, so $(3\div 4) \times 100 = 75$.

19. What is $5\%$ of $200$?

    $10$. Calculate $5\%$ as $0.05$ and multiply by $200$ to find the part of the whole.

20. State the formula for finding $p\%$ of a number $n$ using multiplication.

    $\frac{p}{100} \times n$. To find $p\%$ of $n$, convert the percentage to a decimal by dividing by 100 and multiply by $n$.

21. What is $20\%$ of $45$?

    $9$. Calculate $20\%$ as $0.2$ and multiply by $45$ to find the part of the whole.

22. What is $1\%$ of $600$?

    $6$. Calculate $1\%$ as $0.01$ and multiply by $600$ to find the part of the whole.

23. What is $50\%$ of $38$?

    $19$. Calculate $50\%$ as $0.5$ and multiply by $38$ to find the part of the whole.

24. What is $15\%$ of $60$?

    $9$. Calculate $15\%$ as $0.15$ and multiply by $60$ to find the part of the whole.

25. Identify the value of $35\%$ of $200$.

    $70$. Calculate $35\%$ as $0.35$ and multiply by $200$ to find the part of the whole.
