Question

The distance between two places is 10 km. A person travels 4 km, which is $44\%$ of the entire journey.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B

False

The person covers 4 km out of 10 km. Therefore, the percentage of distance covered by him is:
$\frac{4}{10}=\frac{x}{100}$
$x=40\%$
Thus, the person covers $40\%$ of the total distance, and the statement states that the person covers $44\%$ of the distance.
Hence the statement is False.
