120

Of means multiplication, so 125% of 80 is the same as 125%(80). 

125% is equal to 5/4. 

5/4(80)

=120

Your  method would work if you did your math right: (5/4)*80 = 100

NO, Guest #2. Hectictar's answer is the correct one!

 

125% means =125 /100 =1.25, then multiply this by 80,

1.25 x 80 = 100 which is the right answer.
