If A's salary is 40% more than B's salary, how much percentage is B's salary less than A?
Options:
(A) 26.42%
(B) 27.28%
(C) 28.57%
(D) 29.36%
Say B's salary is 100 then A's salary is 140
100 is how much less than 140? 40
40 less is what percentage of 140?
40/140 x 100 = 28.57 % Less
The answer is "C", because:
1 - [1/1.4] X 100 =28.57%
Thanks guys(Or guy, if you are the only person replying twice)!
if b salary is 100 that a salary would be 140
10% of 140 is 14.
50% is 70
20% is 28
70% is 98
the awswer would be something like 72 to how much procent b salary is of 140.
the awswer to your question is something like 28%
so it has to be C
