The question seems to be incomplete, but here are some thoughts. In word problems, "of" usually means "multiplied by". So you could certainly ask "50 is 125 times what number? You can set this up as a very basic algebra problem, and find the answer. (Be careful; the answer is smaller than 1). It's possible that you mean "50 is 125 percent of what number?" That's a different problem altogether. It is still an easy algebra equation, but you need to be careful how you express "125%" as a factor. If you do it right, your answer will be greater than 10 and less than 100.

Take the amount shown by the percentage as the left number in the proportion. 100 minus that amount is the right number in the proportion.
