Question

if 12/1/2% of a number is 7. find the number​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

To find 12 1/2% of 92:

12 1/2% = (12.5/100) = .125

We now have to find .125 of 92;

the word “of” = “times” (x), so

(.125) x 92 = 11.5 or 11 1/2

Answer 2

If 12/1/2% of a number is 7. find the number?

Let the number be x

A/Q,

12 1/2% of x = 7

→ 25/2 × x = 7

→ 25/2 ÷ 100 × x = 7

→ 25/ 2 × 100 × x = 7

→ 1/8 × x = 7

→ x = 7 × 8

→ x = 56

hence, the number = 56
