farm tax is levied on the 60 % of the cultivated land . the tax department collected total $ 4000 through the farm tax from the village of mr . willam . mr . willam paid only $ 500 as farm tax . the percentage of total land of mr . willam over the total taxable land of the village is :
"only trick n this question is to ignore 60 % information as farm tax is levied uniformly in the village and that includes mr william ' s land . what percentage of tax mr william paid ? this will be equal to the percentage of total cultivated land he holds over the total cultivated land in the village . that leads to ( 500 / 4000 ) x 100 = 12.5 % in percentage terms . but the question asks ratio between his total land to total cultivated land . hence the answer is 12.5 % x ( 100 / 60 ) = 20.833 % and the answer is not there in the options . the correct answer is ( d ) ."
divide(multiply(multiply(divide(500, 4000), const_100), const_100), 60)
