How much percent less is spent on Football than that on Cricket?
22 2⁄9%
27%
33 1⁄3%
37 1⁄7%
Correct answer is C
Let the total spendings on sports be Rs. x
Then, Amount spent on Cricket = Rs. ( 81/360 x x ) = Rs. 9x/40
Amount spent on Football = Rs ( 54/360 x x ) = Rs. 3x/20
Difference = Rs. ( 9x/40 - 3x/20 ) = Rs 3x/40
Therefore Required percentage = Rs. [ ((3x/40)/(9x/40)) x 100 ] % = 33 1⁄3 %

How much percent more is spent on Hockey than that on Golf?
27%
35%
37.5%
75%
Correct answer is D
Let the total spendings on sports be Rs. x. Then,
Amount spent on Golf = Rs. ( (36/360) x x ) = Rs. x/10
Amount spent on Hockey = Rs ( (63/360) x x ) = Rs. 7x/40
Difference = Rs. ( 7x/40 - x/10 ) = Rs 3x/40
Therefore Required percentage = Rs. [ (3x/40)/(x/10) x 100 ] % = 75%.
