To find out what percentage 7 is of 56, you can use the following formula:
Percentage = (Part / Whole) × 100
In this case, the part is 7 and the whole is 56. Plugging those numbers into the formula gives:
Percentage = (7 / 56) × 100
First, we divide 7 by 56:
7 / 56 = 0.125
Next, we multiply that result by 100:
0.125 × 100 = 12.5
So, 7 is 12.5% of 56. This means that if you take 56 as the whole, 7 represents one-eighth of it, which corresponds to 12.5%.
