Question

What is the result of 1/10 of 40?

Answer 1

'of' in mathematics means multiplication


`(1)/(10) * 40 = (40)/(10) = (4* 10)/(1* 10) = (4)/(1) = \boxed{4}`

Answer 2

This is not a difficult question and I will help you solve it :)

When calculating 1/10 from 40, what we have to do is this:

(1/10) * 40 = 4

This means that we have to multiply 40 by 1 and divide by 10 :)

So the answer in this case is 4.
