Problem-Solving and Data Analysis practice question

What percent of 80 is 20?

Answer: 25

20/80 = 1/4 = 0.25, which is 25%.

Common wrong answers

If you answered 4
4 is 80/20. Divide 20 by 80, then multiply by 100.
If you answered 60
60 is 80 − 20, a difference rather than a percent.
If you answered 400
400 is 80/20 × 100 — the ratio turned upside down. The question asks what part 20 is OF 80.
