Solution
In mathematical term “Transversal”,
Number of consonants = 8
Number of vowels = 3 (already calculated)
Total number of letters = Number of consonants + Number of vowels
= 8 + 3
= 11
Percentage of consonants = `"Numerical of consonants"/"Total number of letters" xx 100%`
= `8/11 xx 100%`
= 72.72%
Hence, percentage of consonants is 72.72%.

Sunscreens block harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays produced by the sun. Each sunscreen has a Sun Protection Factor (SPF) that tells you how many minutes you can stay in the sun before you receive one minute of burning UV rays. For example, if you apply sunscreen with SPF 15, you get 1 minute of UV rays for every 15 minutes you stay in the sun.
A sunscreen with SPF 15 allows only `1/15` of the sun’s UV rays. What per cent of UV rays does the sunscreen abort?
