A's salary is 50% more than B's. How much percent is B's salary less than A's?
a. 33(1/4)% b. 33(1/3)% c. 33(1/2)% d. 33%​

The correct answer is B. 33 1/3%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that A's salary is 50% more than B's, to determine how much percent is B's salary less than A's, the following calculation must be performed:

Salary A = B + 50

Salary B = 100

Salary A = 100 + 50 = 150

150 = 100

100 = X

100 x 100/150 = X

10,000 / 150 = X

66.666 = X

100 - 66,666 = 33,333

B. 33 1/3%.

the perimeter is increased by a factor of 2

the answer is 200

step-by-step explanation:

the way the question is worded, it seems to imply the $264 interest is simple interest, not compound interest.

the simple interest for 2 years is $264; the simple interest for 1 year is $132.

$132 interest on a $600 investment means an interest rate of (132/600)*100 = 22%.

the value of $200 at 22% interest compounded annually for three years is

200%281.22%29%5e3

the amount of interest is that value, minus the original $200.
