80 is what percent of 64?
Correct answer: D. 125%
- A. 85%
- B. 120%
- C. 75%
- D. 125%
- E. None of these
Explanation
Using 64 as the base, the percentage is (80 ÷ 64) x 100 = 1.25 x 100 = 125%. The likely trap is 120%, which reflects an incorrect division or an estimate rather than the exact percentage.
