Question

Harold had 1400 stamps.He gave 350 of them to his brother and the rest to his sister. What Percent of the stamps did he give to his sister

Answer 1

75%

Explanation:

Total number of stamps Harold has = 1400.

Number of stamps he gave to his brother = 350

Thus, number of stamps he gave to his sister = 1400 - 350 = 1050

So, the percent of the stamps given to the sister =
`(1050)/(1400) *100` = 0.75 × 100 = 75%

Hence, 75% of stamps will Harold give to his sister.
