x is 25% less than y. So it is equal to 3/4y (as y - 25y/100= 3y/4). Now to find how much percent y is bigger than x:- y-x/x ☓ 100 = y/4 x 4/3y x 100 = 33.33%

sharen2: ya sorry it is bit wrong lemme send u the correct question then pls send me the solution for that

harsh3510: Ok
sharen2: answer pls
harsh3510: we know that x is 25% more than y, so it x=5/4y (as x= y + 25y/100). Now to calculate how much percent y is lower than x :- (x-y) x 100/x = 1/4y x 4/5 x 100 = 20%
