Answer 2

The value of the required number is 400.  

Given:

50 is 12 1/2 percent of what number

Solution:

Let 'x' be the required number    

50 is 12 1/2% of x

Here 12 1/2 = 25/2% = 12.5%

Hence, 50 is 12.5% of x

=> [12.5/100] (x) = 50  

=> 0.125x = 50

=> x = 50/0.125

=> x = 400      

Therefore,

The value of the required number is 400.
