Solve these two problems: 1. A price increased by 40% to 140. What was the original price? 2. A team has 8 members, 3 of whom are managers. What is the probability of selecting a manager?

Let the original price be $P$.
A 40% increase means the new price is $P + 0.40P = 1.40P$.
The final price is given as 140 units.

The original price was 100 units.

: Probability

Total number of team members = 8
Number of managers = 3

The probability of an event is the ratio of the number of favorable outcomes to the total number of possible outcomes.

The probability that the selected person is a manager is $\boxed{\frac{3}{8}}$.
