Question

A drum contained 160 litres of kerosene. 10 litres of kerosene was lost due to leakage. What percent of kerosene remained in the drum?​

Answer 1

Answer:

100-(100/16)=100-6.25=93.75

Step-by-step explanation:

160 litres of kerosene = 100%

1litre of kerosene = (100/160)%

so that, 10litres of kerosene = {(100×10)/160}%=(100/16)% = 6.25%

6.25% of kerosene is leaked out of the drum.

so that, kerosene remained in the drum = (100- 6.25)% = 93.75%
