Question 254153
Wrong answer I am afraid. As the question asked what percent of 2y is 3x i.e. 3x/2y * 100. NOT 2y/3x * 100.


Given,
      x is 40% of y
       x = (40/100)y
       x/y = 40/100
       x/y = 2/5
       y/x = 5/2  ...(1)
Next,
       2y/3x = (2/3)*(y/x)
             = (2/3)*(5/2)
             = 5/3
             = (5/3)*100 %
             = 166.67%
