Question
Sachin and Sanjana are calculating 23% of 800.
Now calculate 52% of 700 using both the ways described above. Which way do you find easier?
Solution
First way 52% of 700 = (1% of 700) × 52
= `(1/100 xx 700) xx 52`
= (0.01 × 700) × 52
= 7 × 52
= 364
Second way 52% of 700 = `52/100 xx 700`
= 0.52 × 700
= 364
So, second way, we have to find easier.
