Question

The number of toffees distributed by pankaj and rajan on their birthday is in the ratio 2:3,respectively,while the ratio of the number of toffees distributed by rajan and vishal is 9:5,respectively.The number of toffees distributed by pankaj is what percentage more/less than the number of toffees distributed by vishal?​

Answer 1

Answer:

toffees distributed by Pankaj = 2x

toffees distributed by Rajan =3x

also toffees distributed by Rajan and Vishal be 9y and 5y respectively

so 3x = 9y

=>. x=3y

now toffees distributed by Pankaj = 6y

and toffees distributed by Vishal = 5y

so Pankaj distributed more toffees

percentage = (y/5y )*100 = 20% more toffees than vishal
