Answer 1

Answer: Prakash coloured 30 pages of the book.

Explanation:

The total number of pages in the entire Harry Potter Colouring Book is 75. Aman and Prakash coloured an entire Harry Potter Colouring Book together. Aman coloured 60% of the pages. This means that the percentage of the entire Harry Potter Colouring Book that Prakash coloured would be 100 - 60 = 40%

The number of pages that Prakash coloured would be

40/100 × 75 = 0.4 × 75 = 30 pages

Aman coloured 60 % of the pages= 75 *60/100= 45

Prakash coloured 75 - 45 = 30 pages
