Respuesta :

Answer:

Final answer is 47.5%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the missing percent is x.

Then x percent of 40 can be written as: [tex]40\cdot\frac{x}{100}[/tex].

Given that resulting percent value is 19.

So we can set both equal.

[tex]40\cdot\frac{x}{100}=19[/tex]

[tex]40x=19\cdot100[/tex]

[tex]40x=1900[/tex]

[tex]x=\frac{1900}{40}[/tex]

[tex]x=47.5[/tex]

So the final answer is 47.5%.
