If 30% of a = b then b% of 50 is the same as:
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
30% = \(\frac{3}{10}\)
30% of a = b
\(\frac{3}{10}\) × a = b
3a = 10b
\(\frac{a}{b }\) = \(\frac{10}{3}\)
Now b% of 50 = 3% of 50
= \(\frac{3}{100}\) ×50 = 1.5
Now , By using option one by one . we find that only option 3 has same value as b% of 50
i.e 15% of a = \(\frac{15}{100}\) × 10 = 1.5
Hence , 15% of a is correct answer .
