How much percent less is spent on Football than that on Cricket?
A.
22 2⁄9%
B.
27%
C.
33 1⁄3%
D.

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 %
