 Swathi secured 35marks in  out of 50 in English and in 89 marks out of 100 in mathematics .In which subject did she get more marks and how much.

Answer: 19%


SOLUTION 1 :

Given:

Percentage of marks in English  = 35÷50

                                                    = (35÷50) x 100

                                                    =  0.7 x 100

                                                    = 70%

Percentage of marks in mathematics = 89÷100

                                                           = (89÷100) x 100

                                                           = 0.89 x 100

                                                           = 89%

Difference between percentage of maths and english =Highest value - lowest value

                                                                                                  =(89-70)%

                                                                                                   = 19%

Swathi scored in better in maths by 19%
