12% present of 50 is (a)3 (b) 6 (c) 9

B   if i could get brainliest that would be great

We assume, that the number 50 is 100% - because it's the output value of the task.

2. We assume, that x is the value we are looking for.

3. If 50 is 100%, so we can write it down as 50=100%.

4. We know, that x is 12% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=12%.

5. Now we have two simple equations:

1) 50=100%

2) x=12%

where left sides of both of them have the same units, and both right sides have the same units, so we can do something like that:

50/x=100%/12%

6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for what is 12% of 50

50/x=100/12

(50/x)*x=(100/12)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x

50=8.33333333333*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (8.33333333333) to get x

50/8.33333333333=x

6=x

x=6

now we have:
