Two numbers are less than third number by 30% and 37% respectively. How much percent is the second number less than by the first
8%
9%
10%
11%

• 7*4=$28 & $36 for fuel
  tot=28+36=$64
  per day by bus=2*1.30=2.60 for week 4*2.60= $10.40
  save=$64-$10.40=$53.60

• Consider the third no. as 100, and so the first two no.s are 70 and 63.
  now the second no. is less than the first no. by 7
  so the second no. is (7/70)*100% less than the first no.
  So ANSWER is 10%

• For fuel of 4 days costs-36/7*4=20.56
  Parking cost=7*4=28
  Total cost=28+20.56=48.56
  By means of bus=1.30*2*4=10.40
  Savings =48.56-10.40=38.16

• Let the third number is x.
  then first number = (100-30)% of x
  = 70% of x = 7x/10
  
  Second number is (63x/100)
  
  Difference = 7x/10 - 63x/100 = 7x/10
  
  So required percentage is, difference is what percent of first number
  
  => (7x/100 * 10/7x * 100 )% = 10%

• consider 3rd no is 1 then first is 0.7 and 2nd are 0.63
  then difference is 0.7-0.63 = 0.07
  by the first number means (0.07*100)/.7 = 10%

• take total percent from 100;
  now first number that is 30% less will be 70;
  second number that is 37% less will be 63;
  difference is 7;
  percentage is (7/70)*100 = 10%
  
  so answer is 10%

• Let the third number be 100
  Then, first number = 70 and second number = 63
  Second number is less than the first by
  7*100/70=10
• 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
• let the 3rd number be 100
  therefore 1st number is 70
  second number is 63
  required % = (7/70)*100
• 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
• LET THE THIRD NUMBER BE 100
  THEN IT TENDS TO
  1)70
  2) 67
  3) 100
  
  NOW THE SECOND NUMBER IS LESS THAN FIRST NUMBER BY 10% ( 7/70*100)
