Answer 1

`a .75 \% \\ \\ a.400 \\ \\ b.no`

Explanation:

`1...... \: let \: the \: percentage \: be \: x \% \\ then \: x \% \: of \: 500 = 375 \\ ((x)/(100) )500 = 375 \\ 5x = 375 \\ x = (375)/(5) \\ \boxed{ x = 75\%} \\ \\ 2.....80\% \: of \: 500 = ( (80)/(100) )500 \\ 80\% \: of \: 500 = 80 * 5 \\ \boxed{ 80\% \: of \: 500 = 40 0}\\ \\ 3.....60\% \: of \: 200 = ( (60)/(100) )200 \\ 60\% \: of \: 200 = 60 * 2\\ \boxed{ 60\% \: of \: 200 = 120} \\ ........his \: statement \: was \: reasonable \: wrong`
