1/6

Why?

.125 times 2 is 25, 25 times 3 is 75, so 3 X 2 = 6

===================================

Really, to answer the question we must formulate an equation,

what percent of .75 IS .125 can be expressed:

.125 = .75 * P (Where P represents the percent)

So a simple re-arrangement and we get:

P = .125/.75 = .166666666666 or rounded to 16.67%

which is what the question was really asking

Could also have gone 1/8 divided by 3/4 = 1/6 = .1666666666=>
