30%=12 Pictures

30/3=10%
12/3=4 Pictures

10%=4 Pictures

10*10=100%
4*10=40 Pictures

So, the photographer took 40 pictures.

10%:4

10*10%:4*10

100%:40

So, the photographer took 40 pics

If the baby smiled in 30% of the pictures (aka 12 photos), the answer is simply 12/30%=40

Proof: 40*0.3=12 so it works
