Question

Which of the following is the largest numbers 20% of 150 , 30% of 300 , 15% of 500 10% of 444

Answer 1

Answer:

the largest one is 30% of 300 that is 90

30% of 300 is greater than 15% of 500 is greater than 10% of 444 is greater than 20% of 150

Answer 2

Given : The numbers are 20% of 150 , 30% of 300 , 15% of 500 10% of 444

To find : The largest number.

Solution :

We can simply solve this mathematical problem by using the following mathematical process. (our goal is to determine the largest number)

First of all, we have to calculate the exact numerical values of the given numbers.

So,

1. 20% of 150 = 150 × 20% = 150 × (20/100) = 30
2. 30% of 300 = 300 × 30% = 300 × (30/100) = 90
3. 15% of 500 = 500 × 15% = 500 × (15/100) = 75
4. 10% of 444 = 444 × 10% = 444 × (10/100) = 44.4

So, the four numbers are :

= 30, 90, 75 and 44.4

The largest number is = 90

(90 > 75 > 44.4 > 35)

And,

90 = 30% of 300

Which implies,

The largest number is 30% of 300

(This will be considered as the final result.)

Hence, the largest number is 30% of 300
