lAs we are talking about percentage and we do not have the actual numbers obtained by the girls, let us suppose
marks of Rishika are 100
priya's marks are 20% less
20% of 100 is obviously 20 -
so, priya's marks are 80
now, Rishika secured 20 marks more than Priya.
to calculate how much more Rishika got than Priya , we have to know what
percent is 20 of 80.
⇒ the method to calculate this is -
20 ÷ 80 × 100
⇒ 25
so, Rishika got 25% more than Priya
