To get the solution, we are looking for, we need to point out what we know.

1. We assume, that the number 62 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 62 is 100%, so we can write it down as 62=100%.

4. We know, that x is 50% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=50%.

5. Now we have two simple equations:

1) 62=100%

2) x=50%

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:

62/x=100%/50%

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 50% of 62

62/x=100/50

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

62=2*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2) to get x

62/2=x

31=x

x=31

now we have:

50% of 62=31
