A man travelled 60 km by car and 240 km by train. Find what per cent of total journey did he travel by car and what per cent by train?
Answer :
Given, distance covered by car = 60km and
Distance covered by train = 240km
⇒ Total journey = 60 + 240 = 300km
⇒ Let x% of total journey is travelled by car
⇒ x% of 300 = 60
⇒ 
= 60
⇒ x = 20%
⇒ Let y% of total journey is travelled by train
⇒ y% of 300 = 240
⇒ 
= 240
⇒ y = 80%
Hence, 20% distance travelled by car and 80% distance travelled by train.
