Question

If 12% of a number is 150, find 2% of that number.

Answer 1

25

Explanation:

To find the value of a number given that 12% of it is 150, we can set up the following equation:

0.12x = 150

Solving for x, we get:

x = 150 / 0.12 = 1250

To find 2% of that number, we simply multiply 1250 by 0.02:

2% of 1250 = 0.02 * 1250 = 25.

Therefore, 2% of the number for which 12% is 150 is 25.
