Percentage

In an election between two candidates, one got 55% of the total valid votes. Twenty percent of the votes were invalid. If the total number of votes was 7500, the number of valid votes that the other candidate got was:

A
2700
B
2900
C
3000
D
3100
Explanation and memory cue

Total votes = 7500; invalid votes = 20% of 7500 = 1500; valid votes = 7500 - 1500 = 6000. One candidate got 55% of valid votes = 0.55 × 6000 = 3300. The other candidate got the remaining valid votes = 6000 - 3300 = 2700. However, 2700 is option A, but the question asks for the number of valid votes the other candidate got, which is 2700. The original correct_answer was A, which matches 2700, so the original answer is correct. The explanation was missing and is now provided. The difficulty is set to easy as it involves basic percentage calculations.

"Let's get out of here. It is going suffocating."

A
Let get
B
Let's get
C
Let's us get
D
Let's to get
Explanation and memory cue

The correct contraction for 'let us' in imperative sentences is "Let's." Therefore, "Let's get out of here" is the grammatically correct phrase. The other options are incorrect because "Let get" lacks the pronoun, "Let's us get" is redundant, and "Let's to get" is ungrammatical.

The price of sugar increases by 20%. By what percent must a housewife reduce the consumption of sugar so that the expenditure on sugar remains the same as before?

A
16.66%
B
20%
C
80%
D
83.33%
Explanation and memory cue

If the price increases by 20%, the new price is 120% of the original. To keep expenditure the same, consumption must be reduced to 100/120 = 5/6 of original, which is a reduction of (1 - 5/6) × 100% = 16.66%.

------------ my brother come, give him this message.

A
Would
B
Ought
C
Should
D
Will
Explanation and memory cue

The correct modal verb to complete the sentence is 'Should' because it is used to indicate a conditional or probable event in the future. The sentence 'Should my brother come, give him this message' is a formal way of saying 'If my brother comes, give him this message.' 'Will' is not appropriate here as it does not convey the conditional meaning implied by the sentence structure.
