1/2

Explanation:

Hi Avahosel2020!

To find the value of
`t` we need to simplify the equation:

25
`t` = 12.5

To just get
`t`, we must divide 25 on both sides:

`(25t)/(25)` =
`(12.5)/(25)`

We can move the decimal one spot over and add a 0 to the denominator:

`(25t)/(25)` =
`(125)/(250)`

`t` =
`(125)/(250)`

Simplifying!

`(125)/(250)` =
`(1)/(2)`.

Thus,
`t` has the value of
`$\boxed{(1)/(2) }$`.
