Q3 of 30 Page 13

x is 5% of y, y is 24% of z. If x = 480, find the values of y and z.


 


 

Given x = 480


Ans,  x is 5% of y.


So, we write it as:



 


solving for y, we get, 



or y = 9600


Now, It is also given that:  y is 24% of z 


Therefore, we can write it as:



or 9600 = 24z/ 100


Solving it for z we get, z = 960000/24


z = 40000
