If A1 is 19 times more than A2, then A2 is what percentage less than A1?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. 95 percent.

( A1) is 19 times more than  ( A2), it means:

⇒ A1 = 19 × A2

Percentage less = (A1 - A2) / (A1) × 100

A1 = 19 × A2 

Percentage less = (19A2 - A2) / (19A2) × 100

Percentage less = ( 18A2) / (19A2) × 100

Percentage less = 18 / 19 × 100

Percentage less= 94.74% OR 95%
