Question 199
If the proposed outlay of Irrigation is x% of the proposed outlay of Agriculture, then x is equal to
Solution
Total outlay = 40,000 cr
Proposed outlay for irrigation = $$\frac{54}{360}$$ * 40,000 = 6,000 cr
Proposed outlay for agriculture = $$\frac{108}{360}$$ * 40,000 = 12,000 cr
Now, outlay for irrigation is x% of that of agriculture.
=> $$\frac{6000}{12000}$$ * 100 = 50%
=> x = 50
(SHORTCUT)
Degree outlay for irrigation = 54 and for agriculture = 108
Required % = $$\frac{54}{108}$$ * 100 = 50%
=> x = 50
