Question

40% of x is 500km. Find the value of x

Answer 1

$\huge\sf\green{Question:}$

40% of x is 500km. Find the value of x

$\sf\pink{Given:}40% ~of~ x ~is ~500km$

$\sf\pink{To~find:} Value~of~x$

$\huge\sf\pink{Solution:}$

$\frac{40}{100}\times x =500$

$x = 500\times \frac{100}{40}$

$x=1250$

$\sf\red{Hence,~x =1250km}$

Answer 2

$\sf\red{Given:}$

• 40% of x is 500km.
• Find the value of x.

$\sf\blue{To\:find:}$

The value of x

$\sf\pink{Solution:}$

$⟼{40\percent×x=500km}$

$⟼\sf\frac{40}{100}×x=500$

$⟼\sf\frac{40}{100}x=500$

$⟼\sf{40x=500×100}$

$\sf{⟼x=}\dfrac{500×100}{40}$

$\sf{⟼x=12,50}$

Hence the Value of $\sf\purple{x=1250}$

$\sf\fbox\green{Verification:}$

$⟼{40\percent×x=500km}$

Putting the value:-

$\leadsto{40\percent×1250=500km}$

$⟼\sf\frac{40}{100}×$$1250=500$

$\sf{⟼4×125=500}$

$\sf{⟼500=500}$

Therefore,L.H.S = R.H.S.

Hence, Verified.
