Question:

If 5% of a = b, then b% of 20 is equal to:

Options:

20% of \(\frac{a}{2}\)

50% of \(\frac{a}{20}\)

50% of \(\frac{a}{2}\)

20% of \(\frac{a}{20}\)

Correct Answer:

20% of \(\frac{a}{20}\)

Explanation:

⇒ 5% of a = b

⇒ \(\frac{1}{20}\) × a = b

⇒ \(\frac{a}{20}\) × 20% = b × 20%             [ multiply by 20% on both side]

⇒ 20% of \(\frac{a}{20}\) = b% of 20
