Indirect % 0 14%(10) 0 17%(11) 30.40%(12) 13.40%(13) 0
Total 100% 100% 100% 100% 100% 100% 100%
(1) – 80 * 70% = 80%
(2) – [(80 * 30%) + (80 * 55%)] = 44 + 24 = 68%
(3) – [(44 * 95%) + (24 * 95%)] = 41.8 + 22.8 = 64.60%
(4) – [(80 * 45%) + (56 * 10%)] = 36 + 5.6 = 41.60%
(5) – 100 – 80 = 20%
(6) – 100 – 56 – 14 = 30%
(7) – 100 – 80 = 20%
(8) – 100 – 68 – 17 = 15%
(9) – 100 – 64.60 – 30.4 = 5%
(10) – 70 * 20% = 14%
8

(11) – [(55 * 20%) + (30 * 20%)] = 11 + 6 = 17%
(12) – [100(24 + 44)] = 32 * 95% = 30.40%
(13) – [100 – 56] = 44 * 10% = 4.4%
45 * 20% = 9%
