π Percentage Relationship π
Given:
A = x% of y
B = y% of x
We can write these as:
A = (x/100) Γ y
B = (y/100) Γ x
Now, let’s examine the relationship between A and B:
A = (x/100) Γ y
B = (y/100) Γ x
Multiply both sides of the first equation by 100:
100A = xy
Multiply both sides of the second equation by 100:
100B = yx
Since xy = yx (multiplication is commutative):
100A = 100B
Divide both sides by 100:
A = B
π Therefore, A is equal to B. π
