Description: What percentage of proteins of the human body is equivalent to the weight of its skin?

Solution

Let the weight of body be 100x Kg
So, Weight of protein=24x Kg
Weight of skin=$$\dfrac{1}{10}\times\ 100x$$ = 10x Kg

Let required percentage be 'k'
24x*$$\dfrac{k}{100}$$ = 10x

k=$$\dfrac{125}{3}$$=41.66%

Option A is the correct answer.
