Question
During school hours, Neha finished 73% of her homework and Minakshi completed 5/8 of her homework. Who must finish a greater per cent of homework?
Solution
Given, Neha finished her homework = 73% = `73/100`
Also, Minakshi finished = `5/8` of her homework
Home work left for Minakshi = `1 - 5/8`
= `(8 - 5)/8`
= `3/8`
Calculating minakshi homework in percentage we get,
= `3/8 xx 100`
= 37.5%
Home work left for neha = (100 – 73) = 27% = `27/100`
Hence, Minakshi finished a greater percentage of homework.
