310The number of cards that Pamela had at first is repeated. Make the number of cards that Pamela had at first the same. LCM of 10 and 7 is 70.
Number of cards that Hilda had in the end
= 21 u + 40 u
= 61 u
Number of more cards that Hilda had than Pamela in the end
= 61 u - 30 u
= 31 u
Number of more cards that Hilda had than Pamela in the end in percent
=
3130 x 100%
≈ 103.3%
Answer(s): 103.3%
