Someone else may want to chime in here, but I believe since they give the fault duty of the transformer as 40MVA and the problem states "the transformer and system have the same X/R ratio" you just need to take 1000KVA/40MVA = 0.025. Then add that to the 4% of the transformer (1/(.04+.025) = 15.4).
