<h3>Given</h3>
  • 40% of work week is 16 hours
<h3>Find</h3>
  • hours in work week
<h3>Solution</h3>

Write the given information as an equation.

... 0.40 × (work week) = 16 hours

Divide by the factor you don't want (0.40).

... (work week) = (16/0.40) hours

... work week = 40 hours

_____

40% means 40/100 (forty hundredths) or 0.40 (forty hundredths). (The % symbol is a shorthand way to write /100.)
