Answer :

so there are 50 teens total
16% have no sibblings

so we must find 16% of 50
16%=16/100=0.16

'of' can be translated as multiply so
0.16 times 50=8
there were 8 teens who have no sibblings
ok so there are 50 teens
16% of the 50 teens don't have any siblings
16% of 50 means you multiply
of means multiplication
you can't multiply 16*50
16% as a decimal is.16 ( 16/100=.16=16% )
so now you multiply .16*50=8
there are 8 teens out of 50 who have no siblings
hope this helps ;)
