Question 79
In a medical certificate, by mistake a candidate gave his height as 25% more than actual. In the interview panel, he clarified that his height was 5. feet 5 inches, What is the percentage correction madeby the candidate from his stated height to his actual height?
Solution
Let actual height = 100x
Stated height = 125% of 100x = 125x
Correction made by candidate from the stated height = 125x - 100x = 25x
Required percent = $$\frac{25x}{125x} * 100$$ = 20%
