TarunKumar1234 · Answer

Given, s/r = k/1000 And, s*x% = r, so x= r/s *100 = 1000/k *100= 100000/k. It is E.

BIDJI23 · Answer

it means that ¤1/100=1000/K

So ¤=100000/K

Push E

And happy new year!!!

Deepakjhamb · Answer

e) is the answer - 10^5 /k

we need to find r/s* 100 and we are given s/r = k/1000

ananya3 · Answer

IMO E

k>0 integer
 \frac{s}{r }= \frac{k}{1000}

r = X% * s
=>  \frac{r}{s}*100 = X  => find X

\frac{s}{r} = \frac{k}{1000}

=>  \frac{r}{s} = \frac{1000}{k}

=>  \frac{r}{s}*100 = \frac{1000}{k} * 100 = \frac{100000}{k}

rocky620 · Answer

s/r = k/1000
so, r/s = 1000/k

(r/s)% = (1000/k)*100

IMO Option E

Green2k1 · Answer

Correct Answer E

If k is a positive integer and the ratio of s to r is equivalent to k/1000, then r is what percent of s, in terms of k?
 
s/r =k/1000

say r is x%of s
r=x*s/100

x= (r/s)*100
 =(1000/k)*100
 =100000/k

manasi05 · Answer

we are given s/r = k/1000
Let x% of s be r
x/100 * s= r
x/100 = r/s
x/100 = 1000/k
x = 100000/k

The correct answer will be E

MakSha · Answer

since, s/r = k/1000
rearranging the expression gives:

r = (1000/k)s
-> r = (100000/k)s%

Thus the answer is 100000/k.

IMO, option E is the answer .
