Answer 1

She is correct 40% is 50 because the answer is 125

Answer 2

If you would like to know if Taylor is correct, you can calculate this using the following steps:

40% of 50 = 40% * 50 = 40/100 * 50 = 20
50% of 40 = 50% * 40 = 50/100 * 40 = 20

Result: Taylor is correct, because 40% of 50 equals to 50% of 40.
