Question

What is 200's
$12 \frac{1}{2} \%$
...With explanation​

Answer 1

$12 \frac{1}{2} \% = \frac{12 \times 2 + 1}{2} \\ \\ = \frac{25}{ 2} \\ \\ = 12.5\%$

$12.5\% \: of \: 200 \\ \\ = \frac{12.5}{100} \times 200 \\ \\ = 12.5 \times 2 \\ \\ = 25.0 \\ \\ \\ \\ therefore \: 25 \: is \: 12 \frac{1}{2} \% \: of \: 200$

Answer 2

$= 12 \frac{1}{2} \\ \\ = \frac{(12 \times 2) + 1}{2} \\ \\ = \frac{24 + 1}{2} \\ \\ = \frac{25}{2} \\ \\ = 12.5 \: \%$

$= 12.5 \: \% \: of \: 200 \\ \\ = \frac{12.5}{100} \times 200 \\ \\ = \frac{2,500}{100} \\ \\ = 25$
