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.
