5.

To find this, you can do the is over of technique.

The is over of technique is as says - is over of and percent over one hundred.

If you use this technique, your equation should look like this:

x/50 = 10/100

Cross multiply 10 and 50 and divide by 100 to get the answer of 5.

Hope this helps!
