Question

A man wills 40% of his wealth to his wife and rest to his children. What percent of the wealth willed to the wife do the children get?

A) 150 B) 66.6 C) 50 D) 20

Answer 1

Answer:

A) 150

Step-by-step explanation:

wife = 40%

children = 100% - 40% = 60%

percent of the wealth for the children to the wife = (60%/40%) × 100% = 3×100/2 % = 150%

Answer 2

Answer:

150%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let total wealth = 100

Wealth for wife = 40% of 100=40

Wealth for children = 60

60=x% of 40

x=(60*100)/40 =150%
