Question

I WILL RATE YOU BRAINLIEST. I REALLY NEED HELP!!! I already tried 12.8 but that didn't work

Answer 1

32/100 = 40/x
32x = 40(100)
x = 40(100)/32
x = 4000/32
x = 125

40 is 125% of 32.

You can check this by multiplying 32 by 1.25.
32 * 1.25 = 40

Answer 2

12.8 is close!!! The actual answer is 12.5.

     is        %             40          x
  ------ = -------   ⇒ -------- = --------
    of       100            32        100

    32x = 4,000
  -------  -----------
    32         32


      x = 12.5
