Correct Answer: 25%


Solution : Money spent on food = 150°
Percentage of money spent on food $=\frac{150}{360}×100=41.67$
Money spent on house rent = 120°
Percentage of money spent on food $=\frac{120}{360}×100=33.33$
Difference of percentage = 41.67 – 33.33 = 8.34%
$\therefore$ The % of money spent on food compared to house rent is $=\frac{8.34\%}{33.33\%}×100=25.02 \approx 25\%$
Hence, the correct answer is 25%.
