250.
given there are two numbers X and Y.
also X is 40% of Y.so,X=0.4Y
therefore y=X/0.4*100,=250%X

(x/y)*100=40
then 100x=40y
=>(y/x)*100=(100/40)*100=250

A/Q, x/y * 100 = 40 (% of x wrt y =40)
i.e,100x/y=40
40y/x=100
y/x * 100 = 100/40 * 100
= 250

x/y=.4
so y/x= 2.5
and therefore y/x *100 = 250
