Answer:

the amount is 16,000,000

Step-by-step explanation:

first let that amount be Y for an example. so...

[tex]\frac{5}{100}*Y=800,000[/tex]

[tex]\frac{5Y}{100}=800,000[/tex]

[tex]5Y=800,000*100[/tex]

[tex]5Y=80,000,000 (then you both divide by 5 in both sides so that Y is left alone.)[/tex]

[tex]So Y=16,000,000[/tex]

so the amount you are looking for is 16,000,000
