Question

A box consists of 600 marbles. 50 of it is given to Mohit, 100 is given to Rahul and 150 is given to Prajwal. Find the percentage of marbles given to each ?​

Answer 1

➤ Given :-

Total marbles in a box :- 600

Marbles given to Mohit :- 50

Marbles given to Rahul :- 100

Marbles given to Prajwal :- 150

➤ To Find :-

Percentage of marbles given to each of them.........

➤ Solution :-

Percent of marbles given to Mohit :-

${\tt \longrightarrow \dfrac{50}{600} \times 100}$

${\tt \longrightarrow \dfrac{50}{\cancel{600}} \times \cancel{100} = \boxed{\tt\dfrac{50}{6}}}$

${\tt \longrightarrow \dfrac{50}{6} = \boxed{\tt 8 \dfrac{1}{3} \bf\%}}$

Percent of marbles given to Rahul :-

${\tt \longrightarrow \dfrac{100}{600} \times 100}$

${\tt \longrightarrow \dfrac{100}{ \cancel{600}} \times \cancel{100} = \boxed{\tt \dfrac{100}{6}}}$

${\tt \longrightarrow \dfrac{100}{6} = \boxed{\tt 16 \dfrac{2}{3} \bf\%}}$

Percent of marbles given to Prajwal :-

${\tt \longrightarrow \dfrac{150}{600} \times 100}$

${\tt \longrightarrow \dfrac{150}{ \cancel{600}} \times \cancel{100} = \boxed{\tt\dfrac{150}{6}}}$

${\tt \longrightarrow \dfrac{150}{6} = \boxed{\tt 25 \bf\%}}$
