      Question

      In a stock of electronics (laptops + mobiles), if 25% of

      mobiles were laptops, then the number of laptops would have been 150% more than that of mobiles. Find the original percentage of laptops in the stock of electronics.
      A 23% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 50% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 45% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 62% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ, When 25% of the mobiles were laptops: Let the number of mobiles be ‘x’ Therefore, number of laptops = 2.5x Total number of electronics = x + 2.5x = 3.5x Now, original number of mobiles = x/0.75 = 1.33x Therefore, original number of laptops = 3.5x – 1.33x = 2.17x Required percentage = (2.17x/3.5x) × 100 = 62%
