Answer: $279.30

(b) How many percent less does Karna have than Chidambaram Round off your answer to the nearest 2 decimal places.

Answer: 4.76%

SOLUTION 1 :

	105%	→	$\frac{$266}{100%}$ x $\frac{105%}{1}$
		=	$279.30

(b)	Step 1:	Difference in amount between Chidambaram and Karna
		→	$279.30 - $266

		→	$1006.40 - $629
		=	$377.4
