Answer 2

Answer:

Required whole quantity (n)= 1250 km

Explanation:

Let the whole quantity be n

According to the problem given,

40% of n = 500 km

=> 40% × n = 500 km

$\implies \frac{40}{100} \times n = 500 \: km$

$\implies \frac{2}{5} \times n = 500 \: km$

$\implies n = 500\: km \times \frac{5}{2}$

$\implies n = 250\:km \times 5$

$\implies n = 1250\:km$

Therefore,

Required whole quantity (n) = 1250 km
