Question

if first no. is greater than second no. by 20% then by what percent second no. is less than first no.

Answer 1

if first no. is 20% greater then the second no. the first number will be 20% less than second number.
so the answer is 20%

Answer 2

Let the second number be x

So, the 1st number is : x + 20x/100 = 6x/5

Difference= 6x/5 - x = 6x/5 - 5x/5 = x/5

= {(x/5) / (6x/5)} * 100 = 100/6 = 16.66 percent
