The required number is 130

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x

Given :-. 50% of a number ( 50% of x ) is added to the number ( x ) the result is 195.

[tex]50\% \: of \: x \: + x = 195 \\ \\ \frac{50}{100} \times x + x = 195 \\ \\ \frac{1}{2} x + x = 195 \\ \\ \frac{3}{2} x = 195 \\ \\ x = 195 \times \frac{2}{3} [/tex]
