Question
Income of A is 25% more than the income of B.What is the income of B in terms of income of A?80%75%78.86%71.25%
Solution
Let's denote the income of B as B and the income of A as A.
According to the problem, A is 25% more than B.
This can be written as: A = B + 25% of B
Or, A = B + 0.25B
Or, A = 1.25B
Now, we want to express B in terms of A.
So, we rearrange the equation to solve for B:
B = A / 1.25
To express this as a percentage, we divide A by 1.25 and multiply by 100:
B = (A / 1.25) * 100
This simplifies to B = 80% of A.
So, the income of B is 80% of the income of A.
