Answer:
76.5%
Step-by-step explanation:
He lost 10% of them on way to the top of the hill
10% of 10,000 men
= 0.1 * 10,000
= 1,000 men
Remaining men = 10,000 - 1,000
= 9,000 men
15% of the rest as he marched them back down the hill.
15% of 9,000 men
= 0.15 × 9000
= 1,350 men
Total men remaining = 9000 - 1,350
= 7,650 men
% remaining =
x% of 10000 men = 7,650
x/100 * 10,000 = 7,650
Cross product
10,000x =7,650 * 100
10,000x = 765,000
x = 765,000/10,000
= 76.5%
x = 76.5%
