Let's thing
949 ----- 100% of the price
499 ------ x% of the price
Multiply in cross
949.x = 100.499
949x = 49900
x = 49900/949
x = 52,58%
So, rounding it 52,58% ≈ 53%
Alternative B

Let Jeremy's age be x
if Jeremy's grandfather is four times as old as he is,grandfather's age is 4x
if the sum of their ages is 90, we have
x%2B4x=90
5x=90
x=90%2F5
x=18->Jeremy's age
Jeremy's grandfather will be 4x=4%2A18=72
answer:
D. 72
