1/2 as a percentage means

1/2 = 0.5 in decimal

Now, in percentage means 0.5 x 100% = 50%.

Let marks obtained by N = x

M's marks = 0.80x

L's marks = 1.25 (0.80x)

K's marks = (0.90) (1.25) (0.80x)

= 0.9x

But 0.9x = 360 ⇒ x = 400

Percentage of Marks obtained by N

= 400 x 100/500 = 80%

Given principal amount = Rs. 8000

Time = 3yrs

Rate = 5%

C.I for 3 yrs = $$\begin{gathered} 8000 x 105100 x 105100 x 105100 - 8000 \\ = Rs. 1261 \end{gathered}$$

Now, C.I for 2 yrs = $$\begin{gathered} 8000 x 105100 x 105100 \\ = Rs. 820 \end{gathered}$$

Hence, the required difference in C.I is 1261 - 820 = Rs. 441

In the question it is asked for 5% of 1500

5 x 1500/100 = 15 x 5 = 75.

Hence, 5% of 1,500 is equal to 75.

Each corresponding letter moves five places forward in the alphabet.
Here as BE is related to GJ then PS will relate to UX.

Speed = 44 kmph x 5/18 = 110/9 m/s

We know that, Time = distance/speed

Time = (360 + 140) / (110/9)

= 500 x 9/110 = 41 sec.

% Profit with respect to A = 40 + 50 + (40 x 50)/100 = 90 + 20 = 110 %.

Given,
The ratio of the doctors to the nurses is 11 : 8
Number of nurses = 8/19 x 209 = 88.
