Teacher pls help me with this question.
Step 1 : Rewrite as fraction
40/100 of P = 25/100 of Q
2/5 of P = 1/4 of Q
Step 2 : Make the numerator the same
(Equal concept)
2/5 of P = 2/8 of Q
From the denominator, we can say that P is 5 units and Q is 8 units
= 8/5
Percentage of P that is Q
= 8/5 x 100%
= 8 x 20%
(after cancelling common factor of 5)
= 160%
40% of P = 25% of Q
Multiply both sides by 4,
160% of P = 100% of Q
Q/P = 160/100 = 160%
