Step-by-step explanation:
For any positive numbers a,b we always have the following identity:
(gcd(a,b) denotes the greatest common divisor between a and b, and lcm(a,b) denotes the least common multiple between a and b)
In our case, we are given that and that
. Plugging that in into our identity, we get:
And so solving for :
40% = 40 / 100 = 0.4
32 is 40% of what
= 32 / 40
= 32 / 0.4
= 80

U can also use this equation to solve it.
32 = 40%x
Simplfy
= 32 = 2/5x
Flib the equation.
2/5x = 32
Multipy both sides by 5/2
(5/2) * 2/5x = (5/2) * 32
x = 80.
