Q. Which is greater?

\newline

Choices:

\newline

(A)

80\%

of

25

\newline

(B)

120\%

of

20

\newline

(C) neither; they are equal

Calculate $80$ % of $25$ : Calculate $80\%$ of $25$ . $\newline$ $80\%$ of $25 = 0.8 \times 25 = 20$
Calculate $120\%$ of $20$ : Calculate $120\%$ of $20$ . $\newline$ $120\%$ of $20 = 1.2 \times 20 = 24$
Compare results: Compare the results of the two calculations. $20$ (from Step $1$ ) is less than $24$ (from Step $2$ ).
