Neco Model Questions Vol1 2023 Civic Education Question 21
Practice objective / multiple choice question 21 from the 2023 Neco Model Questions Vol1 Civic Education examination.
The government allocated a budget of \(150\) billion Naira for infrastructure projects. Scheme A siphons a percentage of the budget equal to \(12\%\). Scheme B siphons a fixed amount of \(8\) billion Naira plus \(5\%\) of the amount remaining after Scheme A. The government wants at least \(75\%\) of the original budget to be available for projects. If the anti‑corruption policy reduces Scheme A's siphon rate by \(x\) percentage points (so the new rate is \(12\%-x\%\)) while Scheme B remains unchanged, what is the smallest integer value of \(x\) that ensures the required \(75\%\) target is met?
