Answer 2

Answer:

13/20

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there! In order to deal with these kind of question all you need to do is to take a variable, says x and form the equation First of all.

After that just read the question carefully and follow the instructions.Ex-

1)subtract 1/4 from a number

i.e. x-1/4

2) multiple the result by 1/4 ,and you get 1/10

i.e. (x-1/4)*1/4=1/10

3)Now, Just solve the equation

x-1/4=4/10

x =4/10+1/4

x =(4*4+1*10)/40

x=26/40

=13/20
