2½ percent of 1,120
(2²)(7)



1% of 1120 = 11.2
1% of 1120 = 11.2
0.5% of 1120 = 5.6

So, 2½ percent of 1,120 = 11.2 + 11.2 + 5.6
= 28

We get....
Quantity A: 28
Quantity B: (2²)(7) = (4)(7) = 28

Answer: C

A --> (2.5/100) X 1120
= (1/40) X 1120
= 28

B = 28 (after solving)

A = B, Hence, C is the Answer.

This is a direct calculation problem.
A: 0.025*1120 = 28
B: 4*7 = 28
A=B, choose option C
