The silk production of Karnataka is 100% more than the silk production of Kerala. Show half the silk production of Kerala as a percentage of the silk production of Karnataka.

The silk production of Karnataka is 100% more than the silk production of Kerala. Show half the silk production of Kerala as a percentage of the silk production of Karnataka. Correct Answer 25 percent

Calculation: 

Let the silk production in Kerala = 100 

So, let the silk production in Karnataka = 100 × 200/100 = 200

Half the silk production in Kerala = 100/2 = 50

Required silk production of Kerala = 50/200 × 100 = 25%

∴ Half the silk production of Kerala is 25% of the silk production of Karnataka
