5 % of what number is 12

240

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the missing number be represented by p

5% of p = 12, where 5% = 5/100

Therefore, we can rewrite the expression as:

5/100 x p = 12

= 0.05p = 12

Divide both sides by 0.05 to get the value of p

0.05p/0.05 = 12/0.05

p = 240

Therefore, 5% of 240 = 12
