If 6 is 50% of a number. What is a number?

Dear Student,

Please find below the solution to the asked query :

$$\begin{gathered} \mathrm{Let} \mathrm{the} \mathrm{required} \mathrm{number} = \mathrm{x} \\ \mathrm{Now}, 50\% \mathrm{of} \mathrm{x} = 6 \\ \Rightarrow \frac{50}{100}\times \mathrm{x} = 6 \\ \Rightarrow \frac{\mathrm{x}}{2} = 6 \\ \Rightarrow \mathrm{x} = 12 \\ \mathrm{So}, \mathrm{required} \mathrm{number} = 12 \end{gathered}$$

Hope this would clear your doubt.

Do let us know in case of any further concerns.
