Question

If the number B is 10% less than another number C and C is 5% more than 150 , then B is equal to ?

Answer 1

C is 5% more than 150 and

100%=150

10%=15

Because you divide both sides by 10

Than 5% is going to equal 7.5

Then you add that to 150 to get 157.5

100%=157.5

10%=15.75

So you do 157.5-15.75 to get 141.75

So B=141.75
