Question

X is 5% of y,y is 24% of z.If x=480,find the value of y and z.

Answer 1

x=y(5/100)
480×100/5=9600=y
similarly z=9600×100/24=40000

Answer 2

Answer:

y=9600 and z=40000

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : X is 5% of y,y is 24% of z. If x=480.

To find : The value of y and z ?

Solution :

x is 5% of y

i.e. $x=\frac{5}{100}y$

x=480,

$480=\frac{5}{100}y$

$y=\frac{480\times 100}{5}$

$y=9600$

y is 24% of z

i.e. $y=\frac{24}{100}z$

y=9600,

$z=\frac{9600\times 100}{24}$

$z=40000$

Therefore, y=9600 and z=40000.
