a) 16 per cent is 16 per hundred, so here the answer is 16!

b) 50 is half of a hundret: so it will be half of 16; 8 is the answer

c)

here i will write an equation:

[tex] \frac{1}{x}= \frac{16}{100} [/tex]

we multiply both sides by x

[tex] = \frac{16x}{100} [/tex]

and multiply by 100

[tex] 100=16 x [/tex]

and divide by 16

[tex] \frac{100}{16}= x [/tex]

so [tex] \frac{100}{16}[/tex]

is the answer (this is 6.25)

d) we can use the half of c) like we did in b using half of a:

the answer is 6.25=3.125
\frac{16x}{100}
