Question

In Khatav taluka, it was decided to make 200 ponds in Warudgaon and 300 ponds in Jakhangaon. Of these, 120 ponds in Warudgaon were completed at the end of May, while in Jakhangaon work was complete on 165 ponds. In which village was a greater proportion of the work completed?

Answer 1

Let the number of ponds completed in Warudgaon be A% and in Jakhangaon, B%.

`"A"/100 = 120/120`

`"A"/100 xx 100 = 120/120 xx 100`

A = 60

`"B"/100 = 165/300`

`"B"/100 xx 100 = 165/300 xx 100`

B = 55.

∴ A greater proportion of the work was completed in Warudgaon.
