Answer : 4. "None of the statements is required"
Explanation :
Answer: D) None of the statements is required Explanation: From the given data, (60 - 45)% = 12.5 + 415% = 16.5=> 100% = ?100% = 16.5 x 100/15 = 110 Hence, P = 45% of 110 = 45x110/100 = 49.5 Q = 50% of 110 = 55R = 60% of 110 = 60 x 110/100 = 66M = 12.5 + 49.5 = 62 or 66 - 4 = 62 Hence, no statement is required to answer.
