Think of it as looking for x. 12% of 50=x
Change the 12% to a fraction. ---> 12/100

Then you will want to put that in parenthesis. The equation will be then...
(12/100)*50=x
Your going to want to multiply 12*50. The 100 means nothing at this step. Equation will then be...
(12*50)/100=x
You will want to multiply whats in the parenthesis first. What you get is 600. The new equation will be...
600/100=x
Divide 600/100 to get your answer. 
Ans: 6=x
