Answer:
600/7
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the third number be a, so,
1st number: 30% less than a → a - 30% of a
1st number: a - (30/100 * a) → a - 0.3a → 0.7a
2nd number: 40% less than a → a - 40% of a
2nd number: a - (40/100 * a) → a - 0.4a → 0.6a
Required % = 2nd/1st * 100%
= 0.6a/0.7a * 100%
= 6/7 * 100%
= 600/7 % or 85.7%
