Explanation:

1)  "Rename one-eight as a percent". 
  
→   = 1 ÷ 8 = 0.125 ;

→ = 0.125 ;  
        
       →  x = 0.125 * 100 = {move the decimal point in the number, "0.125"; two spaces forward, since we are MULTIPLYING, by "100" (which has 2 zeros); 
       →  x = 12 * 100 = 12.5 .

So:  → = 12.5 % ;  since "12.5 % = 12.5/100 "

Other method:

     → = ; 

               →  x = 100 * ;

               →  x  =  * ;

                         =    ;

                         =    ;

               →   x  =  12.5 ;

               →   =  = 12.5% ;

                      → 12.5 % =   ; 
                                      =  ?

→ {Take the "12.5" & move the decimal backward TWO (2) places, since we              are "dividing" by "100" (which has 2 "zeros") ;
 
                                     = 0.125 =  = .

2)  "Rename "0.709" as a percent."

===>   = 0.709 ;  

    → x = 0.709 * 100 = ? ;

Note:  Take the "0.709" ; & move the decimal place "2 (TWO)" spaces forward, since are MULTIPLYING by "100" (which has 2 zeros); to get:
    → x = 70.9 ;

    → x = 0.709 * 100 = 70.9  ;

→ =   = 70.9% ;
                                            → which is:  Answer choice:  [B] .

    →  70.9% = = ?  ; 

     {take the "70.9" ; and move the decimal point backwards TWO (2) decimal places; since we are DIVIDING by "100" (which has "2 (two) zeros") ;

    →  70.9% = = 0.709 .

3)  What percent is equivalent to two-thirds? 
__________________________________________________
    →   =  ; 

x = *100 ;

    = * ;

    =  ;

    = ;

    = 66 ;

→  { 66 } / 100 = 66 % ;  
                                                 or, write as:  66.666666....% ; or, round to:
                                                                      66.67% 
                               {since: " " = 2 ÷ 3 = 0.66666..." .
