Question
Line segment AB represents 500%, Find the length of a line segment which is 100% (whereas AB = 125cm)
- 125cm
- 45cm
- 25cm
- 50cm
Hint:
500% is 5 times of 100%. So to find 100%, divide by 5.
The correct answer is: 25cm
Length of line segment AB = 125cm
This 125 cm = 500% (1)
To find the length of a line segment which is 100%, divide equation 1 by 5 on both sides.
Thus, the length of line segment which is 100% is 25cm.
Alternatively,
By cross multiplication,
500% = 125cm
100% =
