12 is .75x is one way to write this using symbols.
Now we go one more step
and write
12=.75x
In this case it may be easier to see
.75 is 3/4 and write
12=(3/4)x.
Then we find x by multiplying
12 by 4/3 which is
16.
Does this make sense?
If 12 is 3/4 of 16, then
we should have 16x3/4=12 but
16/4=4 and 3x4=12 as desired.
Let the number be x.
7.5% of x is 12
7.5% * x = 12
0.075 * x = 12
x = 12 / 0.075
x = 160
75% AKA 3/4
1/4 of 12 is 3
3/4 of 12 is 3 *3
therefore
75% of 12 is 9
160
