Answer 1

$\huge\mathfrak{Answer \ :-}$
$<b>$
Let the required number be x.

Percent = %

A/q

$40 \ percent \ of \ x \ = \frac{1}{5} \ of \ x + 8$

$\frac{40}{100} × x = \frac{1}{5} × x + 8$

$\frac{2x}{5} = \frac{x}{5} + 8$

$\frac{2x}{5} - \frac{x}{5} = 8$

$\frac{x}{5} = 8$

x = 8 × 5

x = 40

$\tt\red{The \ required \ number \ is \ 40.}$

Let, the number be x

40% of the number = [x*(40/100)] = 2x/5

1/5 th of that number = [x*(1/5)] = x/5

According to the problem,

=>2x/5 = x/5 + 8

=>2x/5 - x/5 = 8

=>x/5 = 8

=>x = 8*5

=>x = 40
