Answer:

Answer to the following question is 80.36.

Explanation:

We use an Amdahl’s Law.

Let x be the percentage of a floating-point instruction.  

Since, the speedup = 4,  

if the program executed 100 cycles then, this program will runs 100/4 = 25 cycles

\frac{100}{4} = \frac{x}{15} + (100-x)

Solve  x, we get:

x = 80.36
