Question:

A is 75% less than B and C is 75% of the difference between A and B. C is what percentage more than A?

Options:

125

100

75

90

Correct Answer:

125

Explanation:

Let B = 100x

A = 100x × \(\frac{25}{100}\) = 25x

C = (100x - 25x) × \(\frac{75}{100}\) = 56.25

 C is more than that of A by =\(\frac{56.25x - 25x}{25x}\)× 100 = 125%
