Question

8 hours is 50% of 4 days.

Options

  • True

  • False

MCQ
True or False

Solution

This statement is False.

Explanation:

Let 8 h be x% of 4 days.

Then, 8 h = x% of 4 days

⇒ 8 = `x/100 xx 4 xx 24`  ......[∵ 1 day = 24 h ⇒ 4 days = 4 × 24 h]

⇒ `(8 xx 100)/(4 xx 24)` = x

⇒ x = `25/3 = 8 1/3`

Hence, 8 h is `8 1/3`% of 4 days.
