Answer & Explanation Percentage of money spend on Tennis = [(45 /360)] X 100% = 12 ½ Let the total spending on sports be Rs. x. Then, Amount spent on Golf = Rs [(36x/ 360 )] = Rs. x/ 10 Amount spent on Hockey = Rs [ ( 63x/360)]= Rs. 7x /40 Difference = Rs. [(7x /40) – (x/10)] = Rs 3x/40 Required percentage = Rs. [ (3x/40)/ x /10) * 100] % = 75% Amount spent on Basketball exceeds that on Tennis by: Rs. [ (50 – 45)/ 360) * 1,80,00,000]= Rs. 2,50,000. Let the total spending on sports be Rs. x. Then, Amount spent on Cricket = Rs [( 81/360) * x ) = Rs. 9x/40 Amount spent on Football = Rs [( 54/360) *x] = Rs. 3x/20 Difference = Rs. [ ( 9x /40) – ( 3x/20) ] = Rs. 3x/40 Required percentage = Rs. [ (3x/40/ 9x/40) * 100)] % = 33 1/3 %
