Jane has read 108 pages from a book. Kevin is reading the same book and has 80 pages left to read. If there are 200 pages in the book, by how many percent is the number of pages left for Jane greater than Kevin?


It's either:
15%
20%
25%
58%
60%

Please explain how you got it because I keep getting a answer that's not there thank you so much for helping!

Respuesta :

Jane has read 108 pages, which leaves 92 pages to read (200 - 108). That is 92/200, which simplifies to 46/100 = 46%. Kevin has 80 pages left, which is 80/200, which simplifies to 40/100 = 40%. Therefore, Jane has got to read 6% more pages, which however is not on here. This could be a mistake in the question.
