Answer:
The percentage that the coat was reduced is 25%.
Step-by-step explanation:
A percentage is always out of a factor of 100.
40 x 2.5 = 100
30 x 2.5 = 75
75/100 = 3/4
1/4 is missing, which is the percentage.
1/4 = 0.25, or 25%

If you're looking for "x"
x/3 = 3
x = 3*3
x= 9
There is a not so well-known theorem that solves this problem.
The theorem is stated as follows:
"Each angle bisector of a triangle divides the opposite side into segments proportional in length to the adjacent sides" (Coxeter & Greitzer)
This means that for a triangle ABC, where angle A has a bisector AD such that D is on the side BC, then
BD/DC=AB/AC
Here either
BD/DC=6/5=AB/AC, where AB=6.9,
then we solve for AC=AB*5/6=5.75,
or
BD/DC=6/5=AB/AC, where AC=6.9,
then we solve for AB=AC*6/5=8.28
Hence, the longest and shortest possible lengths of the third side are
8.28 and 5.75 units respectively.
