Correct Answer: 150
Solution : Let the total wealth be $x$. The man wills 40% of his wealth to the wife = 40% of $x$ = 0.4$x$ Wealth for the children = $x$ – 0.4$x$ = 0.6$x$ So, the required percentage $=\frac{\text{wealth for children}}{\text{wealth to the wife}} × 100 = \frac{0.6x}{0.4x} ×100 = 150$% Hence, the correct answer is 150.
