Question

    The value of 'A' is directly proportional to the value

    of 'B'. When 'A' equals 25, 'B' is 40. Using this relationship, determine the value of 'A' when 'B' is 92.
    A 54.0 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 62.5 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 57.5 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 56.5 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ; A = k X B {Where 'k' is some constant} So, 25 = k X 40 Or, k = (5/8) So, A = (5/8) X 92 = 57.5
