Question

If 15% of x=20% of y, then find x:y

Answer 1

According To Question -

15% of x = 20% of y

or, 15x/100 = 20y/100

or, 15x = 20y/100 × 100

or, 15x = 20y

or, x/y = 20/15

or, x/y = 4/3

Answer) x:y = 4:3

Answer 2

Answer:

3:2

Step-by-step explanation:

15 \div 100 \times x  

= 15x \div 100 \\  =

 \: x = 100 \times 15 \\ x = 1500 \\ 20 \div 100 \times x \\  = x = 20 \times 100 \\ x = 2000 \\  

x/y= 1500/2000

x:y= 15:20

=>>>  X:Y = 3:2
