The first and second numbers are, respectively, 35% and 45% less than the third number. The second number is what percentage of the first number?

Correct option is D

Given:
First number is 35% less than the third number
Second number is 45% less than the third number
Formula Used:
​$$\text{Percentage} = \left( \frac{\text{Second Number}}{\text{First Number}} \right) \times 100$$​​
Solution:
Let Third number = 100
First number = 100 - 35% of 100 = 65
Second number = 100 - 45% of 100 = 55
Percentage = $$\frac{55}{65}$$​ × 100 = 84$$\frac{8}{13}\%$$​​
