Basic Math MCQ 7 (One number percent greater than percent of other number)
MCQ7: How much 60% of 50 is greater than 40% of 30?
a) 18 b) 13 c) 15 d) 20
Solution:
Here we first calculate 60% 0f 50 and then we calculate 40% of 30. The subtracting second answer from the first answer will be the result !
60% 0f 50 \( =\frac{60}{100}\times 50=30 \)
Now for second answer
40% of 30 \( =\frac{40}{100}\times30=12 \)
Subtracting 60% of 50 – 40% of 30 = 30-12 = 18
So 60% 0f 50 is 18 greater than 40% of 30
Option a is correct!
