Answer:

[tex]\huge\boxed{\dfrac{2}{16}=12.5\%}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]p\%=\dfrac{p}{100}\to p=p\cdot100\%\\\\\dfrac{2}{16}=\dfrac{2:2}{16:2}=\dfrac{1}{8}\\\\\dfrac{1}{8}=\dfrac{1}{8}\cdot100\%=\dfrac{100}{8}\%=12.5\%\\\\\text{Other method.}\\\\\dfrac{1}{8}=\dfrac{1\cdot125}{8\cdot125}=\dfrac{125}{1000}=\dfrac{125:10}{1000:10}=\dfrac{12.5}{100}=12.5\%[/tex]
