A.
5.62%
B.
9.37%
C.
35%
D.
40%
AnswerAnswer: Option D
Solution
Answer: Option D
Solution:
Number of short length coats before removal := (100 - 15)% of 800
= 85% of 800
=
= 680
Number of short length coats after removal :
= (680 - 500)
= 180
Total number of coats after removal :
= (800 - 500)
= 300
Number of full length coats removal :
= (300 - 180)
= 120
∴ Required percentage :
= %
= 40%
