      income of C is 50% less than the sum of income of A and B. Income of C is what percent less than income of A?
      A 12.5% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 15% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 18.75% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 20% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Let, income of A, B and C is Rs. a, Rs. b and Rs. c respectively. According to question, a = 1.6b And, c = 0.5 × (a + b)
      = 0.5 × (1.6b + b)
      = 0.5 × 2.6b
      = 1.3b So, c/a = 1.3b/1.6b = 0.8125 So, income of C is 18.75% less than income of A.
