The first and second numbers are, respectively, 35% and 45% less than the third number. The second number is what percentage of the first number?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. 848138\over13% . 

Let the third number = 100

First number = 100 − 35% of 100 = 65

Second number = 100 − 45% of 100 = 55

Percentage of second number to first number = (55 ÷ 65) × 100 = 848138\over13%
