Answer 2

The value of x is 600

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

40% of x is 240

To find:

value of x

Solution:

We put the condition in numbers here

40% of x =240

solving it furthermore

40/100 X (x) =240

$\frac{40}{100} X (x ) =240$

$\frac{40x}{100} =240$

Taking the like terms together

∴ $40x = 240 (100)$

∴ $40x = 24000$

∴ $x = \frac{24000}{40}$

∴ $x= \frac{2400}{4}$

∴ $x= 600$

∴ x=600

Thus, the value of x is 600

This means that 40% on 600 is given as a discount of 240
