Question

A car has 444 wheels while an autorickshaw has just 333. Complete the blank. An autorickshaw has \%%percent fewer wheels than a car.

Answer 1

25% fewer wheels than a car

Explanation:

To calculate the percentage of fewer wheels that the autorickshaw has when compared to the car we have to first divide the number of wheels that the autorickshaw has by the number of wheels that the car has. Then we subtract that decimal value from 100 and then multiply that output by 100 to get the percentage value we are looking for. Like so...

333 / 444 = 0.75

100 - 0.75 = 0.25

0.25 * 100 = 25%

Finally, we can see that the percentage value is 25% fewer wheels than a car.
