If U gets 5 percent more marks than V, then by what percentage marks of V are less than the marks of U?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 3 i.e. 4.7%.
Let the marks of V be x then,
The marks of U be 1.05x [U gets 5 percent more marks than V]
Now,
Required difference = 1.05x - x = 0.05x
Required percentage = 0.05x/1.05x × 100 = 4.7%
