Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFGiven:
Let the first number be x.
Let the second number be y.
Formula used:
Percentage = (Value/Original value) × 100
Calculation:
One-third of the first number = x/3
150% of the second number = 1.5y
Product = (x/3) × 1.5y
⇒ Product = 0.5xy
Original product = x × y
Percentage = (0.5xy/xy) × 100
⇒ Percentage = 0.5 × 100
⇒ Percentage = 50%
∴ The product is 50% of the original product.
