any1 know the method to approach this q ? ^
Step 1: 4/5 = 32
Step2: 32/4 = 8
Step3: 5/5 = 40
Step4: 40/5 = 8
Voila!
Yes, so we rewrite the question as x * 4/5 = 32
To get x by itself, we divide both sides by 4/5 so we get:
x = 32 / (4/5)
If we type that into the calculator we get: x = 40
To get x by itself, we divide both sides by 4/5 so we get:
x = 32 / (4/5)
If we type that into the calculator we get: x = 40

the answer is 40

the answer is 40
Yeah I know didn't I get the answer on step 3?
I was simply proving on step 4 that it would be 40 as each 1/5 was equals to 8.

I think you meant as
32*5/4
The OP is probably married with children at this stage
Thank you for helping me with this question, I am appreciative about that, to you. Many thanks,Samsheer
0.8x = 32
Divide both sides by 0.8 to get x =40
Divide both sides by 0.8 to get x =40
