Let the total amount of expenditures be Rs. x. Then, the expenditure on interest on loans = Rs. (17.5% of x) = Rs. 17.5 x 100 and the expenditure on transport = Rs. (12.5% of x) = Rs. 12.5 x . 100 Difference between the two expenditures = Rs. 17.5x - 12.5x 100 100 = Rs. 5x 100 and so, the required percentage = 5x/100 x 100 % = 40%. 12.5x/100
