1)  

 Find the number which is 14% lessthan 325.

Answer: 279.5


SOLUTION 1 :

Given:

14% of 325   =   (14÷100) x 325

                        =  0.14 x 325

                        =  45.5

 The required number = 325 - 45.5

                                   = 279.5



2)  

 Find the number which is 11% lessthan 264.

Answer: 234.96


SOLUTION 1 :

Given:

11% of 264   =   (11÷100) x 264

                        =  0.11 x 264

                        =  29.04

 The required number = 264 - 29.04

                                   = 234.96



3)  

 Find the number which is 14% lessthan 247.

Answer: 212.42


SOLUTION 1 :

Given:

14% of 247   =   (14÷100) x 247

                        =  0.14 x 247

                        =  34.58

 The required number = 247 - 34.58

                                   = 212.42



4)  

 Find the number which is 15% lessthan 239.

Answer: 203.15


SOLUTION 1 :

Given:

15% of 239   =   (15÷100) x 239

                        =  0.15 x 239

                        =  35.85

 The required number = 239 - 35.85

                                   = 203.15



5)  

 Find the number which is 11% lessthan 278.

Answer: 247.42
