Question

Quantity A: 9\% of 93
Quantity B: 93 times 0.09

• A. If Quantity A is more than Quantity B
• B. If Quantity A is equal to Quantity B
• C. If Quantity A is less than Quantity B
• D. If comparison can't be made from the information given

Hint:

When comparing percentages and direct multiplications, make sure to compute both quantities fully before making a comparison.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

First, calculate Quantity A and Quantity B: Step 1: Calculate Quantity A.
Quantity A is 9\% of 93, so: \[ A = \frac{9}{100} \times 93 = 8.37 \] Step 2: Calculate Quantity B.
Quantity B is 93 times 0.09, so: \[ B = 93 \times 0.09 = 8.37 \] Step 3: Comparison.
Since \( A = B = 8.37 \), we can conclude that Quantity A is equal to Quantity B. Step 4: Conclusion.
The correct answer is option (2): Quantity A is equal to Quantity B.
