Answer:

140

Explanation:

You can think of this as 35 = 25% of x.

25% = 0.25, so 35 = 0.25x.

You can multiply by 4 on each side to get

140 = 4(0.25)x which simplifies to

140 = x

Answer:

140

Explanation:

We already have our first value 35 and the second value 25. Let's assume the unknown value is Y which answer we will find out.

As we have all the required values we need, Now we can put them in a simple mathematical formula as below:

35 = 25% × Y

35 = 25/100 × Y

Multiplying both sides by 100 and dividing both sides of the equation by 25 we will arrive at:

Y = 35 × 100/25

Y = (35 × 100)/25

Y = 140

Finally, we have found the value of Y which is 140 and that is our answer.

Hope this is a better break down than before!
