If 1.5 = .40 then what is X = .60?
Your question doesn't make sense.
1.5 does not = 0.40
I think you forgot to put an X in there somewhere.
$${\frac{{\mathtt{1.5}}{\mathtt{\,\times\,}}{\mathtt{0.6}}}{{\mathtt{0.4}}}} = {\frac{{\mathtt{9}}}{{\mathtt{4}}}} = {\mathtt{2.25}}$$
I think you meant 40% and 60%.
That would make sense.
Then the first answer is correct.
