Less

Explanation:

It would be, if you set up a proportion, it would be:

#52/x = 130/100" "(larr " bigger")/(larr"smaller")#

You have to multiply: # 52 xx 100# and divide the product by #130# to get #x#,

#x = (52xx100)/130#

Once you’ve worked that out, you’ll see that it is less.

Hope this helped :)
