Let the no. be x
Then,
x = 80 - 40% of 80
x = 80 - 40 × 80 / 100
x = 80 - 4 × 8
x = 80 - 32
x = 48
Hope it helps ❤ ! Thanks for asking !

Answer:
Number is 48
Step-by-step explanation:
The number is 40% less than 80, that means number is 60% of 80…..(100%–40%=60%)
Let's calculate 60% of 80
60% can be written as 50%+10%
60% of 80 = (50+10)% of 80
= 50% of 80 + 10% of 80
Now,
50% of 80 = half of 80 = 40
10% of 80 = one tenth of 80 = 80/10 = 8
Hence,
60% of 80 = 40 + 8 = 48
48 is 40% less than 80.
