Question

What percentage of 250 is 20?

• A. 20%
• B. 25%
• C. 8%
• D. 50%

Answer 1

The correct option is C 8%

Let the required percentage be $x\%$.

Given: $x\%\text{of}250=20$

$\Rightarrow \frac{x}{100}\times 250=20$

$\Rightarrow x=\frac{20\times 100}{250}$

$\Rightarrow x=8$

Therefore, 20 is 8% of 250.
