1)  

 Find the number which is 14% lessthan 297.

Answer: 255.42


SOLUTION 1 :

Given:

14% of 297   =   (14÷100) x 297

                        =  0.14 x 297

                        =  41.58

 The required number = 297 - 41.58

                                   = 255.42



2)  

 Find the number which is 13% lessthan 210.

Answer: 182.7


SOLUTION 1 :

Given:

13% of 210   =   (13÷100) x 210

                        =  0.13 x 210

                        =  27.3

 The required number = 210 - 27.3

                                   = 182.7



3)  

 Find the number which is 11% lessthan 206.

Answer: 183.34


SOLUTION 1 :

Given:

11% of 206   =   (11÷100) x 206

                        =  0.11 x 206

                        =  22.66

 The required number = 206 - 22.66

                                   = 183.34



4)  

 Find the number which is 13% lessthan 261.

Answer: 227.07


SOLUTION 1 :

Given:

13% of 261   =   (13÷100) x 261

                        =  0.13 x 261

                        =  33.93

 The required number = 261 - 33.93

                                   = 227.07



5)  

 Find the number which is 14% lessthan 288.

Answer: 247.68


SOLUTION 1 :

                        =  0.14 x 288

                        =  40.32

 The required number = 288 - 40.32

                                   = 247.68



6)

                        =  0.14 x 246

                        =  34.44

 The required number = 246 - 34.44

                                   = 211.56



7)
