A
4800

B
3800

C
3200

D
4200

Solution

Total votes polled = 8000
Bittu got 60% of the votes
Number of votes Bittu got = 60% of 8000
We can write it as
= 8000 × 60/100
= 4800
Numberof votes Amit got = 8000 – 4800 = 3200
Question 2
1 / -0

A
19 3/13 %

B
20 3/13 %

C
18 3/13 %

D
21 3/13 %

Solution

We know that there are 5 vowels in 26 English alphabets
So the percentage of vowels = (5 × 100)/ 26
We get
= 250/13
= 19 3/13 %
Question 3
1 / -0

King got 75% marks out of a total of 1000. How many marks did she lose?

A
975

B
350

C
150

D
250

Solution

Total marks = 1000
Marks scored by king = 75% of total marks
Total marks scored by king = 75% of 1000
We can write it as
= 1000 × 75/100
= 750
So the marks lost by king = 1000 – 750 = 250
Question 4
1 / -0

In a class of 60 children, 30% are girls. How manyboys are there?

A
32

B
42

C
36

D
38

Solution

No. of children = 60
Percentage of girls = 30%
So total number of girls = 30% of 60
We can write it as
= 60 × 30/100
= 18
Numberof boys = 60 – 18 = 42
Question 5
1 / -0

What percent of 24 kg is 1450 gm?

A
4 (1/24)%

B
5 (1/24)%

C
6 (1/24)%

D
7 (1/24)%

Solution

24 kg is 1450 gm
We know that
1 kg = 1000 gm
So we get
24 kg = 24 × 1000 = 24000 gm
We can write it as
= (1450/24000) × 100
So we get
= 145/24%
= 6(1/24)%
Question 6
1 / -0

Express:3 2/5 as percent

A
240%

B
140%

C
340%

D
440%

Solution

3 2/5 as percent
We can write it as
3 2/5 = (3 × 5 + 2)/ 5 = 17/5
By converting 17/5 as a percent
= 17/5 × 100
= 340%
Question 7
1 / -0

A
2800

B
2700

C
2750

D
2600

Solution

Salary = ₹ 3000
Saving in every month salary = 10% of salary
So the total savings = 10% of ₹ 3000
We can write it as
= 3000 × 10/100
= ₹ 300
Totalexpenditure = 3000 – 300 = ₹ 2700
Question 8

A
1

B
2

C
4

D
3

Solution

2% of 2 hours 30 min
We know that
1 hour = 60 minutes
So we get
2 hours 30 min = 2 × 60 + 30
= 120 + 30
= 150 min
We can write it as
= 150 × 2/100
So we get
= 30/10
= 3 minutes
Question 9

Question 10
1 / -0

Sam bought a basket of mangoes containing 100 mangoes. 15% of these were found to be rotten. Of the remaining, 20% got crushed. How many mangoes were in good condition?

A
58

B
68

C
78

D
70

Solution

Number of mangoes = 100
So the rotten mangoes = 15% of 100
We can write it as
= 100 × 15/100
= 15
Remaining mangoes = 100 – 15 = 85
We know that
Mangoes crushed = 20% of 85
We can write it as
= 85 × 20/100
= 17
So the balance number of mangoes = 85 – 17 = 68
Therefore, 198 mangoes were in good condition.
Question 11
1 / -0

6 ¼ % of what number is 375?

A
4000

B
5000

C
6000

D
7000

Solution

Consider x as the number
6 ¼ % of x = 375
By further calculation
25/ (4 × 100) of x = 375
So we get
1/16 x = 375
Here
x = (375 × 16)/ 1 = 6000
So the number is 6000.
Question 12
1 / -0

A shop worth ₹ 100000 was insured for 89% of its value. How much would the owner get in case of any mishappening?

A
89000

B
11000

C
86590

D
90000

Solution

Worth of shop = ₹ 100000
Amount insured = 89% of its values
We can write it as
= 89% of ₹ 100000
So we get
= ₹ 100000 × 89/100
= ₹ 89000
Question 13
1 / -0

Question 14
1 / -0

Express:1 m 20 cm as percent of 2 m 50 cm

A
58%

B
48%

C
54%

D
46%

Solution

1 m 20 cm as percent of 2 m 50 cm
We know that 1m = 100 cm
We can write it as
1 m 20 cm as percent of (1 × 100 + 20) cm = 120 cm
2 m 50 cm as percent of (2 x 100 + 50) cm = 250 cm
So we get
= (120/250) × 100
By further calculation
= 12 × 4
=48%
Question 15
1 / -0

A class has 60 boys and 50 girls. What is the percentage of boys in the class?

44 $\frac{6}{11}$ %

B
54 $\frac{6}{11}$ %

C
64 $\frac{6}{11}$ %

D
50 $\frac{6}{11}$ %

Solution

Number of boys = 60
Number of girls = 50
So the total number of children = 60 + 50 = 110
So the percentage of boys in the class = (60/110) × 100
We get
=600/11
= 54 $\frac{6}{11}$ %
