Question

12.5% of x =0.25, then x =​

Answer 1

$12.5\% \times x = 0.25 \\ x = 0.25 \times \frac{1000}{125} \\ x = 2$

Answer 2

Answer:

$\frac{12.5}{100} \times x = \frac{25}{100}$

$\frac{12.5x}{100} = \frac{25}{100}$

$12.5x = 25$

$x = 25 \times \frac{10}{125}$

$x = \frac{250}{125}$

$x = \frac{50}{25}$

$x = 2$
