    Seriously? Sure!

    One half of 12 000:

    12 000 / 2 = 6 000

    One fifth of 6 000:

    6 000 / 5 = 1 200

    One fourth of 1 200:

    1 200 / 4 = 300

    One tenth of 300:

    300 / 10 = 30

    So, the number that is one tenth of one fourth of one fifth of one half of 12 000 is 30!

    30 is the answer. 12,000 divided by 2 is 6,000. 6,000 divided by 5 is 1,200. 1,200 divided by 4 is 300. And 300 divided by 10 is 30. Hope this helps.

    12000

    * .5 = 6000

    * .2 = 1200

    * .25 = 300

    * .1 = 30

    that is easy, it is 30.

    12,000 x 1/2=6,000

    6,000 x 1/5=1,200

    1,200 x 1/4=300

    300 x 1/10=30
