  1. Two numbers are respectively 25% and 20% less than a third number. What percent is the first number of the second ?
    1. 5%
    2. 75%
    3. 80%
    4. 93.75%
Correct Option: D

Rule : If two numbers are respectively p% and q% less than the third number, first number as a percentage of second is

100 - p
× 100%
100 - q

Here , p = 25% , q = 20%
∴ Required percentage =
100 - 25
× 100%
100 - 20

Required percentage =
75
× 100% = 93.75%
80
