Question

Product of one-third of a number and 150% of another number is what percent of the product of original number?

A.

80

B.

50

C.

75

D.

120

Correct option is B

Given:
Let the two original numbers be x and y
We are comparing:
(1/3 × x) × (150% of y) with x × y

Formula:
Required %=(13×x)×(1.5×y)x×y×100\text{Required } \% = \frac{\left(\frac{1}{3} \times x\right) \times \left(1.5 \times y\right)}{x \times y} \times 100​​

Solution:
Required %=13×1.5×x×yx×y×100=(13×1.5)×100=0.5×100=50%\text{Required } \% = \frac{\frac{1}{3} \times 1.5 \times x \times y}{x \times y} \times 100\\= \left(\frac{1}{3} \times 1.5\right) \times 100= 0.5 \times 100 = 50\%​​

 Correct Answer: (b) 50
