Please mark brainliest.

Answer 2

Solution:-

Let the total number of scouts be 100

As 40 % of the total scouts are from Gujarat. 
So, 40 % of 100 
= (100*40)/100 
= 40 scouts are from Gujarat.
20 % of the total scouts from Gujarat are from Ahmedabad.
So 20 % of 40
= (40*20)/100
= 8 scouts
Percentage of scouts in the camp from Ahmedabad = (8*100)/100
= 8 %
