In an examination, Gopal secured 15% more marks than Asha, and Asha secured 10% more marks than Sachin. How much per cent more marks did Gopal secure than Sachin?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
Let marks scored by Sachin = 100
Then marks scored by Asha = 100 + 10% of 100 = 110
Marks scored by Gopal = 110 + 15% of 110
= 110 + 16.5 = 126.5
So, Gopal scored 26.5% more than Sachin.
