Why no one has manually solved this 0.6/0.7 to get 0.857.
06/10 ÷ 07/10.
06/10 * 10/07 cross multiplication will cancel both 10.
06/07 = 0.857,
For efficiency, %age multiply it with 100.
= 85.7%.

Efficiency = Output / Input
= 0.6 / 0.7
= 0.857.
Than in percentage efficiency = 0.857 * 100
= 85.7 %.
= 0.6 / 0.7
= 0.857.
Than in percentage efficiency = 0.857 * 100
= 85.7 %.

Option D was correct because the efficiency will be calculated by using formula (output/input).
So,
0.6/0.7 = 0.857.
Under % = 85.7%
So,
0.6/0.7 = 0.857.
Under % = 85.7%

E = output/input =output/output+losses.
So in the question they have to give that losses are neglected.
Then the answer is correct.
So in the question they have to give that losses are neglected.
Then the answer is correct.

Efficiency(n) % = (Output Power / Input Power)*100
Efficiency(n) % = (0.6W / 0.7W)*100
Efficiency(n) % = 85.71
Efficiency(n) % = (0.6W / 0.7W)*100
Efficiency(n) % = 85.71

eff=output power/input power * 100.
So output power is 0.6w and input power is 0.7 watt.
0.6/0.7 * 100 = 85.7%.
So output power is 0.6w and input power is 0.7 watt.
0.6/0.7 * 100 = 85.7%.

Efficiency(n)=output/input
Efficiency(n)=0.6W/0.7W (BOTH "w" CANCEL)
n=0.8571
n%=0.8571x100
n=85.71%
Efficiency(n)=0.6W/0.7W (BOTH "w" CANCEL)
n=0.8571
n%=0.8571x100
n=85.71%

Adding to sandyachethu: ratio is always without units so thats why both 'w' would cancel eachother.

Because efficiency = output / input.
= 0.6 / 0.7 = 0.857 = 0.857*100 % = 85.7 %
= 0.6 / 0.7 = 0.857 = 0.857*100 % = 85.7 %

Efficiency = Output/Input.
=0.6/0.7 = 0.857.
In Percentage, 0.857*100 = 85.7%.
=0.6/0.7 = 0.857.
In Percentage, 0.857*100 = 85.7%.
