1. If 20% of a=b then b% of 20 is the same as

  • A. 4% of a
  • B. 4% of a
  • C. 4% of a
  • D. 4% of a

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

20 % of a = b

বা,  a × (20/100) = b 

বা, a × (1/5) = b

বা, a : b = 5 : 1

Let a = 5 and b = 1 

Let b% of 20 is the same as x% of a, then

b% of 20 = x% of a 

বা,  20 × (1/100) = 5 × (x/100)

বা, x = 20/5

∴ x = 4%

The correct option is 4% of a.
