Question : If P = 400 and Q = 600, then P is how much percentage less than Q?
Option 1: 22.2%
Option 2: 42.5%
Option 3: 33.33%
Option 4: 50%
Correct Answer: 33.33%
Solution :
Difference = Q − P = 600 – 400 = 200
Original value = Q = 600
Percentage less = $\frac{\text{Difference}}{\text{Original value}}×100$
= $\frac{200}{600}×100$
= $\frac{1}{3}×100$
= 33.33%
Hence, the correct answer is 33.33%.
