PercentageEasySSC GD 2024
If 20% of a number is 40, what is 60% of the same number?
- (A)130
- (B)120
- (C)40
- (D)24
Correct answer: (B) 120
20% of the number is 40, so the number is 40 × 100 ÷ 20 = 200. Now 60% of 200 = 200 × 60 ÷ 100 = 120. Hence the required value is 120.
Shortcut: Scale directly: 40 × 60/20 = 120.
