I am assuming that your question is the following:
If HCF of 12 and 40 can be given by the expression 40 + 4x then find the value of x.
12 can be written as 2 x 2 x 3
40 can be written as 2 x 2 x 10
So we see that the common out of the two is 2 x 2 = 4, and this will be the HCF for numbers 12 and 40.
Its also been given that HCF = 40 + 4x.
Now we can equate the two HCFs we have: i.e.
40 + 4x = 4
x = -9
