Answer
Answer (as printed): B
Explanation
$\frac{384}{540}=\left(\frac{384}{540} \times 100\right) \%=71 \frac{1}{9} \% ; \frac{425}{500}=\left(\frac{425}{500} \times 100\right) \%=85 \%$; $$\begin{aligned} \frac{570}{700} & =\left(\frac{570}{700} \times 100\right) \%=81 \frac{3}{7} \% ; \frac{480}{660} \\ & =\left(\frac{480}{660} \times 100\right) \%=72 \frac{8}{11} \% \end{aligned}$$ $\therefore \frac{425}{500}$ shows the best percentage.
