Question

25 is 12% of what number? How do I find the answer?

Answer 1

25=12% of what

percent means parts out of 100
12%=12/100=0.12

'of' means multiply

so
25=12% of what translates to
25=0.12 times what
divide both sides by 0.12
208.333333333333333=what
208 and 1/3 is the number

Answer 2

25x12% is 3
