1. The organizers of a fair projected a 25 percent increase in attendance this year over that of last year, but attendance this year actually decreased by 20 percent. What percent of the projected attendance was the actual attendance?

  • A. 45%
  • B. 45%
  • C. 45%
  • D. 45%

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Let,  

last year present = 100

this year projected present = (100 + 25) = 125

this year Actual present = (100 - 20) = 80

so, the percentage = {(80/125)×100}% = 64%
