Question
A is 5 percent more than B and B is 10 percent more than
C, then by what percentage is A more than C.Solution
A = B + 5% of B = B × (105/100) B = C + 10% of C = C × (110/100) A = C × (110/100) × (105/100) = 1155/1000 A is (155/1000) more than C. In terms of percentage, A = C × (155/1000) × 100 = 15.5%
