Answer 2

Answer:

Let the all three numbers be a, b and 100

• According to the Question :

⇒ a = (100 - 32)% of Third Number

⇒ a = 68% of 100

⇒ a = 68/100 × 100

⇒ a = 68

⇒ b = (100 - 20)% of Third Number

⇒ b = 80% of 100

⇒ b = 80/100 × 100

⇒ b = 80

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀───────────────

• What percent is the first of second :

⇢ ?% of b = a

⇢ ?/100 × 80 = 68

⇢ ?/5 × 4 = 68

⇢ ? = (68 × 5)/4

⇢ ? = 17 × 5

⇢ ? = 85%

∴ Second number is 85% of First number.
