Solution:

(4) Let the total spendings on sports be ` x.Then,
Amount spent on Golf

=( { 36 } /{ 360 } × x ) = { x } /{ 10 }

Amount spent on Hockey

=( { 63 }/ { 360 } × x ) = { 7 } /{ 40 } x

Difference

= : ( { 7 }/ { 40 } x - { x }/ { 10 } )= { 3 x } /{ 40 }

∴ Required percentage

= ( { { 3 x }/ { 40 } } /{ { x } /{ 10 } } ) × 100 \ = 75 \%
