❦_____________________❦

Answer :

GiveN :

• B is 10% less than C
• C is 5% more than 150

To finD :

• Value of B

Solution :

Finding the value of C →

Given C is 5% more than 150. so,

C = 105% of 150

=> $\small{\bf{ \frac{105 \times 150}{100} }}$

=> 157.5

Hence,

$\large{\bf{\boxed{\green{The\: value\:of\:C\:is\:157.5 .}}}}$ ....... ( 1 )

Finding the value of B →

• B is 10% less than C --------( Given )
• the value of C is 157.5 -----( According to eq. 1 )

So,

B = 90% of C

=> $\small{\bf{\frac{90 \times 157.5}{100} }}$

=> 141.75

$\large{\sf{\pink{\boxed{Hence,\: value\:of\:B\:is\:{\boxed{141.75}}}}}}$
