15% fewer seconds than Nolan took. So Kong took

100%−15%=85%

85/.85=.85*?/.85

100=?

Which means that Nolan took 100 seconds.

To complete the multiplication times test Nolan took 97.75 seconds and this is determined by using unitary method.

Given :

  • Kong took 15% percent fewer seconds than Nolan took to complete his multiplication timed test.
  • Kong took 85 seconds.

Let the time taken by Kong be 100%. Therefore the time taken by Nolan is 115% because it is given that Kong took 15% percent fewer seconds than Nolan.

So, time taken by Nolan to complete his multiplication timed test:

[tex]= \dfrac{85}{100}\times 115[/tex]

= 97.75 seconds

To complete the multiplication times test Nolan took 97.75 seconds.
