Step-by-step explanation:
I think your question is missed of key information, allow me to to assume fundamental information and give one example for your better understanding.
My answer:
Given that Lesley’s fruit salad contains 40% grapes and which figure represents 40%?
To have the question answered, we need to know the total amount of Lesley’s fruit salad is how much?
If the total amount is a (grams)
=> the amount of grape is: [tex]\frac{a*40}{100}[/tex] = 0.4a (grams)
For example, Lesley's has 100 gram of mixed salads which are grapes, cabbage, tomato. Lesley’s fruit salad contains 40% grapes. Which figure represents 40%
=>The figure represents 40% is: [tex]\frac{100*40}{100} = 40[/tex] grams.
Hope it will find you well.
