    Question

    If one-fourth of half of a number is 25, then 20% of that number is:

    A.

    80

    B.

    20

    C.

    60

    D.

    40

    Correct option is D

    Given:

    One-fourth of half of a number is 25.

    Solution:

    Let the number be 'x'.

    Half of the number is x2.\frac x2.​​

    One-fourth of half the number is 14×x2=x8.\frac14 \times \frac x2 = \frac x8.​​

    According to the problem,x8 \frac x8​ = 25.

    x = 25 ×\times​ 8

    x = 200

    20% of x = 20100×\frac{20}{100}\times​200

    20% of x = 40

    Therefore, 20% of the number is 40.
