The number of products P sold by company A is what percent of the number of products P sold by company F?

A40.625
B120
C296.5
D406.25 ✓ Correct
Correct answer: (D) 406.25
Explanation

The number of products P sold by company A is 406.25 percent of that sold by company F, so the answer is 406.25.

Company A sells 0.78 lakh of product P.

Company F sells 0.192 lakh of product P.

So the ratio of A's sale to F's sale is 0.78 to 0.192.

Dividing 0.78 by 0.192 gives about 4.0625.

As a percentage this is 406.25 percent.

So the answer is 406.25.
