Question

    A and B are two numbers. Their average is 360, and the

    sum of A and B is 140% of A. What percentage of A is the difference between A and B?
    A 40% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 20% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 29% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 18% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ;
    Since A + B = 140% of A

    So, A : B = 5 : 3

    (A − B) : A = 2 : 5

    Therefore,

    2/5 × 100% = 40%
