Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e.. 1623%16 {{2} \over 3}\%.

Given that

Rupu’s income is 20% more than Madhu’s income

Let Madhu's income be 100 units

Now, Rapu's income = 100 + 100 × 20/100

= 100 + 20 = 120 units

Madhu's income = 120 - 100 = 20 units less than Rapu's income

Hence, the required percentage = (20/120) × 100 = 1623%16 {{2} \over 3}\%
