Solution

To solve this problem, we need to follow these steps:

  1. We know that A's salary is 40% of B's salary. We can express this as A = 0.40B.

  2. We also know that B's salary is 25% of C's salary. We can express this as B = 0.25C.

  3. To find out what percentage of C's salary is A's salary, we need to express A's salary in terms of C's salary. We can do this by substituting the second equation into the first to get A = 0.40 * 0.25C.

  4. Simplifying this equation gives us A = 0.10C.

  5. Therefore, A's salary is 10% of C's salary.
