All percentages are in mass% and all quantities are in grams (mass), be sure do not to take volumes into account because mass is 'additive', volumes are not quantitatively additable!
Answer: Take whatever mass of 60 percent solution you have, multiply that mass by 20 (=60-40) and then divide that amount by 40, this is how much water to add to get an 40% solution.
Example: Suppose you have 100 gram of 60% solution, then you should add:
100 * (60-40)/40 = 100*0.50 = 50 gram of water; this is to be added to 100 gram of 60% solution to get (50 + 100 =) 150 gram of 40% solution.
(see on top of the page to know why this calculation method is not valid for 'volumes')

To create a 50% chlorinated solution from the 60% and 40% solutions, the chemist will need to mix the two in equal amounts. Therefore, 50 L of the 60% solution and 50 L of the 40% solution are needed to make a 100 L solution that is 50% chlorinated.

Expressed as a percentage, 24/40 x 100 = 60 percent. Expressed as a decimal, 24/40 = 0.6.
40 percent of 60 is 2,400%
To find 40 percent of 400, you first convert 40 percent to a decimal by dividing by 100, which gives you 0.40. Then, you multiply 0.40 by 400 to find the answer. Therefore, 40 percent of 400 is 160.
First we convert 40% to a decimal. we get 40/100 or 0.40 then we multiply it by 60 0.4*60 = 24 so 40% of 60 minuts is 24 minuts
60 percent of 40 = 2460% of 40= 60% * 40= 0.60 * 40= 24
40% of 60% = 40/100 * 60/100 = 0.24 or 24%
