To find the number that 40 is 25% of, you can set up the equation 0.25x = 40, where x is the unknown number. To solve for x, you divide both sides by 0.25, giving you x = 40 / 0.25 = 160. Therefore, 40 is 25% of 160.

The important thing is for you to understand what percent means. It is a way of dealing with the concept of proportion and basically is asking what happens if you divide the number you are looking at by 100 parts and then multiply this with the 'percentage' you want to know. So in this case divide 25 by 100 which gives you 0.25 and then multiply this by 40. This gives you 10.
