Answer 1

28.5% Or 29% if you round it.

Answer 2

Yosef can eat 28.5% more jamuns than Rose.

Explanation:

Yosef can eat jamuns = 21

While Rose can eat jamuns =15

To calculate the percentage change (increase or decrease) first take the difference.

Decrease = Original number - new number

Decrease = 21 - 15 = 6

% decrease =
`(decrease)/(original number)` × 100

=
`(6)/(21)` × 100

= 0.2857 × 100 = 28.5%

Yosef can eat 28.5% more jamuns than Rose.
