The question is ambiguous.
A is right if the second hour is in terms of the original amount (16 grams). That is not how it should be done, but there is nothing in the problem restricting us from doing it that way.
B is right the way most people would do the problem. I would say you should accept this as the right answer. The 4.5% is taken away from what was left after the first hour. I would do it that way left to my own devices.
C. The % conversions are not correct. Those conversions are 35% and 45%
C is not even in contention for being right.
D Same problem as C

Answer:
61.84%
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the cost of the box be x. Since the price of the box and the pen is Rs 80, the pen's price can be represented as 80 - x. The box is sold at a ten percent profit, and an added ten percent is equal to 1.1. Therefore, the price the box sells at is 1.1(x). A 20% loss is the same a keeping 80% or multiplying by 0.8. This means the pen sold at 0.8(80 - x). Now, we are given the box went for Rs 28 more than the pen, so we can create an equation:
1.1x = 0.8(80 - x) + 28
We can simplify and solve:
1.1x = 64 - 0.8x + 28
1.9x = 92
x = 92/1.9
x = 920/19
The cost of the box after the increase would be 1.1(920/19) and the pen would be 0.8(80 - 920/19).
The sum of these two can be written as a percent x of 80.
80x = 0.8(80 - 920/19) + 1.1(920/19)
80x = 64 - 0.8(920/19) + 1.1(920/9)
80x = 64 - 0.3(920/19)
80x = 64 - 276/19
80x = 940/19
x = 940/1520
x = 0.6184
This is 61.84%
Step-by-step explanation:
2^3 X 3^-4 X 5^2 / (2x5)^2 X 2 X 3^2 X 3^-6
I will simply the expression on the RHS if the bracket first
2^2 X 5^2 X 2 X 3^2 X 3^-6
= 2^3 X 3^-4 X 5^2
So, putting them together
Both sides have th same expression
They cancel out each other
