Solution:
Given Expression is 1/40* x = 1/8
Step : Define x in the Equation:
Step : Divide the Equation by 8
Step : Do cross multiplication
Step : Arrange it in particular form
____________________________
☞ 1/40x = 1/8
☞ x/40 = 1/8
☞ x = ⅛ × 40
☞ x = 5
.
Therefore, Answer is 5.
x = 5
1/40 of x is the same x divided by 40, so let’s put that into the equation to get x/40 = 1/8.
Now, multiply both sides of the equation by 40 to cancel out the division by 40.
x = 1/8 * 40
x = 40/8
Now, just simplify.
x = 5
