Question

One fourth of one third of two fifth of a number is 15. What will be 40% of that number?

Answer 1

Answer:

180

Step-by-step explanation:

Explanation:

(1/4) * (1/3) * (2/5) * x = 15 then x = 15 * 30 = 450

40% of 450 = 180

Answer 2

Answer: 180

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x

1/4 of 1/3 of 2/5 of x = 15

1/4 x 1/3 x 2/5 of x = 15

2x/60 = 15

Multiply both sides by 60

2x = 900

Divide both sides by 2

x = 450

40% of x = 40% of 450

40/100 x 450

= 180
