Option 1: 0.5%

Option 2: 5%

Option 3: 500%

Option 4: 50%

Team Careers360 24th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 500%


Solution : Given: 20% of $(x + y)$ = 30% of $(x - y)$
⇒ $\frac{20}{100}×(x+y)=\frac{30}{100}×(x-y)$
⇒ $2x+2y=3x-3y$
⇒ $x=5y$
⇒ $\frac{x}{y}=\frac{5}{1}$
Required percentage = $\frac{x}{y}×100=\frac{5}{1}×100=500$%
