Answer 2

Answer:

       y is 20% of x

Step-by-step explanation:

37.5% of (x-y) =25% of (x+y)

37.5 / 100 × (x - y) = 25 / 100 × (x + y)

37.5(x - y) = 25(x + y)

375(x - y) = 250(x + y)

375/250 = (x + y) / (x - y)

3 / 2 = (x + y) / (x - y)

3(x - y) = 2(x + y)

3x - 3y = 2x + 2y

3x - 2x = 2y + 3y

x = 5y

y / x = 1 / 5

% of x is y = 1 / 5 × 100 = 20%

∴ y is 20% of x
