40\% * x = 10 \\\\\\\implies (40)/(100) x = 10\\\\\\\implies (4x)/(10) = 10\\\\\\\implies 4x = 100\\\\\implies x = \frac{100}4 =25

Answer:

x = 25

Explanation:

40% of something = 10.

Let something = x

40% = 40 / 100

40/100 *x = 10 Multiply by 100

40x = 10 * 100 Combine

40x = 1000 Divide by 40

x = 1000/40

x = 25
