The expenditure on the interest on loans is by what percent more than the expenditure on transport?

Answer» Let the total amount of expenditures be Rs. x. Then, the expenditure on interest on loans = Rs. (17.5% of x) = Rs. 17.5 x 100 and the expenditure on transport = Rs. (12.5% of x) = Rs. 12.5 x . 100 Difference between the two expenditures = Rs. 17.5x - 12.5x 100 100 = Rs. 5x 100 and so, the required percentage = 5x/100 x 100 % = 40%. 12.5x/100
