(A) 360

Step-by-step explanation:

360*.40=144

360

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be done in more than one way, but i like the simpler way, so i will show you that. The simplest way to do this is to simplify the equation into a simpler way to do it. If you have 40%, that's hard to get to 100%, so divide it by 4. You will get 36, and that is now 10% of the unknown number. Then just multiply 36 by 10 and you get 360, which is your final number.
