Answer 1

Hey user

Here is your answer :-

Let the number be " x ".

By the given condition

$x - x \times 20\% = 40 \\ \\ x - x \times \frac{20}{100} = 40 \\ \\ x - \frac{x}{5} = 40 \\ \\ \frac{5x - x}{5} = 40 \\ \\ \frac{4x}{5} = 40 \\ \\ x = \frac{40 \times 5}{4} \\ \\ x = 10 \times 5 \\ \\ x = 50$

so the required number is " 50 ".

Thank you
