that of A (correct to 2 decimal places)?
-
A.
29.04%
-
B.
30.86%
-
C.
29.85%
-
D.
27.01%
Correct Answer:
D. 27.01%
Explanation:
The correct answer is Option D: 27.01%.
To find how much percent B's salary is less than A's, we can assume B's salary is 100 units. Since A's salary is 37% more than B's, A's salary is 137 units. The difference between their salaries is 37 units. To calculate the percentage by which B's salary is lower than A's, we divide this difference by A's salary: (37 / 137) * 100. This calculation results in approximately 27.0072%, which, when rounded to two decimal places, gives 27.01%.
