Oh, dude, let me put on my math wizard hat for a sec. So, if 0.3 is 12% of a number, that means the number is 2.5. It's like finding out who ate the last slice of Pizza at a party - mysterious and slightly disappointing.

To find the number, we can set up a proportion: 0.3 is to x as 12 is to 100. This can be written as 0.3/x = 12/100. Cross multiplying gives us 0.3 * 100 = 12 * x. Simplifying further, we get 30 = 12x. Dividing both sides by 12 gives us x = 30/12 = 2.5. Therefore, 0.3 is 12 percent of 2.5.

Well, isn't that a happy little math problem we have here! To find out what number 0.3 is 12 percent of, we can set up a simple equation. We can divide 0.3 by 0.12 to find that it is 2.5. So, 0.3 is 12 percent of the number 2.5. Happy calculating!
