To calculate 8 percent of a number, you multiply the number by 0.08. This is because percent means "per hundred," so 8 percent is equivalent to 8 out of 100, which is written as 0.08. For example, to find 8 percent of 200, you would multiply 200 by 0.08 to get 16.

There is more than one way to work it out, here are two examples.

Divide the total by 100, then multiply the answer by 8, this will give you 8% of the total.

Or multiply the total by 0.08, this will also give you 8% of the total.
