An engine of 96 horsepower is running at 75% power. What horsepower is being developed?
- 62
- 72
- 168
Explanation from PART66Online
Running at 75% power means developing 75% of the rated 96 horsepower. Multiplying 96 by 0.75 gives 72 horsepower. The 168 answer wrongly adds 75% rather than taking 75% of the rating.

Hey.
96 * 0.75 = 72 :)
