Step-by-step explanation:
im not even sure try using google
To get 10% of 40, you move the decimal point one way to the left. So 10% of 40 is 4
Now you need 2% and because you know 10% is 4, you divide that by 10 and multiply it by 2 because of the 2%
4/10=.4 .4•2=.8
Now you add them
4+.8=4.8
12% of 40 is 4.8
