Solution:
Given, in a scout camp 40% were from Gujarat state and 20% of these were from Ahmedabad.
We have to find the percentage of scouts in the camp from Ahmedabad.
Let the scouts in a camp be 100
Scouts from Gujarat = 40% of 100
= (40/100) × 100
= 40
Scouts from Ahmedabad = 20% of 40
= (20/100) × 40
= 800/100
= 8
Percentage of scouts from Ahmedabad = scouts from Ahmedabad/Total scouts × 100
= (8/100) × 100
= 8%
Therefore, the required percentage is 8
