A number p increased by p% of 99 equals 99 increased by 99% of p. What is (p + 51)% of 928 + 72?
1464
Calculation:
p% of (p + 99) = 99% of (99 + p)
⇒ p + (p × 99)/100 = 99 + (99 × p)/100
⇒ p = 99
Now, (p + 51)% of 928 + 72
⇒ (99 + 51)% of 928 + 72
⇒ 150% of 928 + 72
⇒ 1392 + 72
⇒ 1464
∴ The correct answer is 1464.
