Answer:
180
Step-by-step explanation:
If 40% = 72, 100% can be found like so:
40% = 72
100% = [tex]\frac{100}{1}[/tex] * [tex]\frac{72}{40}[/tex]
You can reduce 40 and 100 by 20 (or probably more, but I'll use 20)
So now we have:
[tex]\frac{50}{1}[/tex] * [tex]\frac{72}{20}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{3600}{20}[/tex]
Divide, and you get 180.
To check, we can find 40% of 180.

Hope this helps!
