Concept

A solution set is the set of all variables that makes the equation true.

Given equation:


25x\text{ = 40}

Let us solve for x:


\begin{gathered} 25x\text{ = 40} \\ Divide\text{ both sides by 25} \\ (25x)/(25)\text{ = }(40)/(25) \\ x\text{ = }1.6\text{ }or\text{ }(8)/(5)\text{ or 1}(3)/(5) \end{gathered}

Answer: Option B
