C. 130
D. none of these
Answer & Solution
Answer: The correct answer is 133.
Solution:
Lets form an equation
8\ \ \ is\ \ \ what\ \ \ percent\ \ \ of\ \ \ 6
\downarrow\ \ \ \ \ \ \downarrow\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \downarrow\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \downarrow\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \downarrow\ \ \ \ \ \downarrow\
8\ \ \ =\ \ \ \ \ \ x\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \frac{1}{100}\ \ \ \ \ \times\ \ \ \ \ 6
⇒\ \ 8\ =\ x.\ \frac{1}{100}\times6
⇒\ \ 8\ \times100\ =\ x\times6
⇒\ \ \frac{800}{6}\ =\ x
x\ =\ 133
Hence, 8 is 133 percent of 6.
