Answer:

62

Explanation:

50% is technically 1/2 right?

So, if 31 is half of this mysterious number then we just need to times 31 by 2.

Therefore, 31 * 2 = 62.

We can check this by multiplying 62 by .50 (remember that when using percents in an operation we move the decimal over twice)

62 * .50 = 31

I hope this helps!!

If you have any question just ask!
