Answer 1

Answer:

120

Step-by-step explanation:

4/5x = 15+ 3/4x

4/5x- 3/4x = 15

1/20x = 15

x = 300

40٪x = 120

Answer 2

Answer:

120

Step-by-step explanation:

let the number be x

$\frac{4}{5} x=15+\frac{75}{100} x$

$\frac{4}{5}x-\frac{75}{100}x=15$

$\frac{80-75}{100} x=15$

$\frac{5}{100}x=15$

$5x=1500$

$x=1500/5$

$x=300$

∴ 40% of x

$\frac{40}{100} *300$

=120
