The answer to this question is 33.3% ... simply 4 times 3 is 12 so 40 times 3 is 120. 3 parts of the 120 therefore equaling 1/3 of the 120. This was solved by a rising 9th grader, hope it helps :] I happen to be she.

First convert 120% to a number by shifting the decimal point two places to the right. Then recall that "of" translates to "multiply," and take the product of these numbers: 1.20 x 40 = 48.
40% of 50% of 120 = (40/100)*(50/100)*120 = 24.
40% of 120 is 48.
120
40% of 120 = 120*40/100 = 48
40% off of 120 = 72 = 40% discount applied to 120 = 120 - (40% * 120) = 120 - (0.40 * 120) = 120 - 48 = 72
