✅ Correct Option: 4

Calculate each percentage value, then arrange from largest to smallest.

(A) 24% of 25

$= \frac{24}{100} \times 25$

$= \frac{24 \times 25}{100}$

$= \frac{600}{100}$

$= 6$

(B) 18% of 30

$= \frac{18}{100} \times 30$

$= \frac{18 \times 30}{100}$

$= \frac{540}{100}$

$= 5.4$

$= \frac{11}{100} \times 55$

$= \frac{11 \times 55}{100}$

$= \frac{605}{100}$

$= 6.05$

(D) 16% of 50

$= \frac{16}{100} \times 50$

$= \frac{16 \times 50}{100}$

$= \frac{800}{100}$

$= 8$

The calculated values are:

(A) = 6
(B) = 5.4
(C) = 6.05
(D) = 8

In decreasing order: $8 > 6.05 > 6 > 5.4$

Therefore, the correct arrangement is (D), (C), (A), (B).
