Question

Help me with this math question plz

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

40% of something = 10.

Let something = x

40% = 40 / 100

40/100 *x = 10                       Multiply by 100

40x = 10 * 100                       Combine

40x = 1000                            Divide by 40

x = 1000/40

x = 25

Answer 2

$40\% \times x = 10 \\\\\\\implies \dfrac{40}{100} x = 10\\\\\\\implies \dfrac{4x}{10} = 10\\\\\\\implies 4x = 100\\\\\implies x = \dfrac{100}4 =25$
