To solve the equation \( ?\% \times 40 = 4 \), we can convert the percentage to a decimal by dividing by 100. Let \( x \) represent the percentage:
\[
\frac{x}{100} \times 40 = 4
\]
Now, simplify the equation:
\[
\frac{40x}{100} = 4
\]
This simplifies to:
\[
40x = 4 \times 100
\]
\[
40x = 400
\]
Now, divide both sides by 40:
\[
x = \frac{400}{40} = 10
\]
Thus, \( x = 10\% \).

To calculate \(25\% \times 40\):
First, convert the percentage to a decimal:
\[
25\% = \frac{25}{100} = 0.25
\]
Now, multiply by 40:
\[
0.25 \times 40 = 10
\]
Therefore, \(25\% \times 40 = 10\).
