Answer:

200 teachers

Let t= teachers

t * 25% = basic math teachers

Answer:

200

Step-by-step explanation:

The 50 basic math teachers are 25% of all the teachers of the school.

You can use a proportion.

50 is to 25% as x is to 100%

50/25 = x/100

10/5 = x/100

5x = 100 * 10

5x = 1000

x = 200

There are 200 teachers.
