Question : If 80% of A is 13 more than 90% of B, and the ratio of 40% of A to 60% of B is 10 : 9, then what is the value of A – B?

Option 1: 50

Option 2: 80

Option 3: 20

Option 4: 60

Team Careers360 17th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 20


Solution : From the first condition,
$0.8A = 0.9B + 13$ ___(1)
From the second condition,
$\frac{0.4A}{0.6B} = \frac{10}{9} \Rightarrow 0.4A = \frac{10}{9} \times 0.6B$ ___(2)
From equation (2), we can express A in terms of B:
$A = \frac{10}{9} \times \frac{0.6B}{0.4} = \frac{5}{3}B$ ___(3)
Substitute equation
