A certain research group plans to create computer models of x% of a list of 10,000 bacterial species known to inhabit the human body. After a budget cut, the group finds it must reduce this selection by (x − 8)%. In terms of x, how many species of bacteria will the group be able to model? Choose the correct answer:
A) x*x – 5x
B) (x)(105 – x)
C) (x)*(108 - x)
D) (100)(95 – x)
E) (x-5)/100
Initial: (x/100)*10000 = 100x (bacterial species)   After reduce BY (x - 8)%, the percentage of bacterial species = 1 - (x - 8)% = 1 - (x - 8)/100 = (108 - x)/100   Note: Difference betweenreduce to[means: the remain] andreduce by[means: the remain = 1 -reduce by]   So, the number of bacterial species after reducing: 100x*(108 - x)/100 = (x)*(108 - x)   Ans is (x)*(108 - x).
