Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFGiven:
A = 250% of B
Calculation:
A = 250% of B
⇒ 250/100 × B = 2.5B
Now, A + B = 2.5B + B = 3.5B
According to the question,
\(\dfrac{B}{A+B}\) = \(\dfrac{B}{3.5B}\) = \(\dfrac{10}{35}\)
Required % = \(\dfrac{B}{A+B}\) × 100
⇒ \(\dfrac{10}{35} \) × 100 = 200/7 = 28\(\dfrac{4}{7}\)%
∴ Option (2) is the correct answer.
