Given:

10 is 25%

To find:

The number of 25% is 10.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of 25% is 10.

$x * 25\% = 10 \\ x * (25)/(100) = 10$

Multiply both sides by 100.

$x * (25)/(100) * 100 = 10 * 100 \\$

x * 25 = 1000

Divide both sides by 25.

x * (25)/(25) = (1000)/(25)

* = 40

Final answer:

The required number is 40.
