Answer:

False

Explanation:

Complementary Percentages gives 100% after adding, where 100% represents the Grand Total amount.

Let x be the complement percentage of 25 %,

Thus, by the above statement,

x + 25 % = 100 %

x = 100 % - 25 % = 75 %

So, the complement of 25 % is 75 %,

Hence, this is a false statement that the complement of 25% is 52% .
