Answer:
There were 140 robberies in Springfield in 2012.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's marked (named) robberies in 2012 with x, which is worth 100%
196 robberies in 2013 worth 100% + 40% = 140%
Now we will make proportion
x : 196 = 100 : 140
When we multiply external and internal members we get
140 x = 196 · 100 => 140 x = 19600 => x = 19600/140 = 140
x = 140 robberies in 2012
.5 means half. 12 x 2 is 24. so, your equation would be x/2=12
