Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Number of runs made by running = 110 - (3 x 4 + 8 x 6)
= 120 - (60)
= 60

Now, we need to calculate 60 is what percent of 120.

=> 60/120 * 100 = 50 %

=> z = 2x

4. A student multiplied a number by 3/5 instead of 5/3. What is the percentage error.

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

Let the number be x,
then,
$\begin{aligned} \frac{5}{3} - \frac{3}{5} = \frac{16}{15}x \end{aligned}$

Error% = $\begin{aligned} (\frac{16}{15}x * \frac{3}{5} * 100)% = 64% \end{aligned}$
