I’d guess 35, but there’s probably some trick to it.
25 popped into my head . So I will go with that.
95
Divided by 1/2 means multiply by 2.
Interesting, I think that:
40 divided by 1/2 = 80
40 divided in 1/2 = 20
40 divided by 2 = 20
YET
40 divided in 2 ALSO = 20
Is that right?
95 of course.
40/0.5=80
80+15=95
95.
I hope no-one objects to my jumping in with my answer many times too late….i live in WA and get these long after some of the rest of you do. But I like to put it to my brain to answer. That’s what it’s all about, isn’t it?
Matt, you are today’s winner!
Dividing by 1/2 is the same as multiplying by 2.
So, 40 * 2 + 15 = 95.
Infinite possible answers. 1/2 is undefined. What is 40 divided by 1/2 a potato plus 15?
I don’t understand Noobypants. Why is 1/2 “undefined” but not 40 or 15?
17
Half of 40 is 20 so 40 divided by 20 = 2 plus 15 is 17
35
Wow!
looks like 350to me
error
Looks like
35
to me
35
When you say “40 divided by 1/2,” due to the language of mathematical properties is the same as saying “forty times two” which is is 40*2+15=95. The answer is 95.

40 divided by 1/2 is basically saying multiply by 2. So:
40×2=80, 80+15= 95.
40*2=80+15=95 it’s the answer
95
35
My honest guess would probably be 35
