Back to paper

If the income of P is 40% less than Q, then the combined income of P and Q is how much percent more than that of P?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. 16623166\frac{2}{3}.

Let the income of Q be 100x

Income of P = (100 - 40)% of 100x = 60x

Total income = 100x + 60x = 160x

Required percentage = (100x/60x) × 100 = 16623166\frac{2}{3}
