well, 50% is pretty much half.


you need 2500 for the deposit, you have 50% or half of that.


whatever% of anything is just (whatever/100) * anything.


50% of 2500 is just (50/100) * 2500 or 0.5 * 2500 or 1250.


how much more do you need? well, you need the other 50%.


50% of 2500 is just (50/100) * 2500 or 0.5 * 2500 or 1250.
