When the price of an item decreased by 20%, the number of items sold increased by 30%. What was the percentage increase on the total revenue?
जब किसी आइटम की कीमत मे 20% की कमी हुई, और बेची गई वस्तुओं की संख्या में 30% की वृद्धि हुई। तो कुल राजस्व पर प्रतिशत वृद्धि क्या थी?
A) 20%
B) 6%
C) 5%
D) 4%
Correct Answer : 4%

New cost per item= Rs.80 and New sale = 130 item
New Revenue = Rs.(80*130) = 10400
Percent Change =(new - old)/(old)= (400/10000)*100 = 4%

x/10 = y/5
x/y = 10/5 = 2/1
x:y = 2:1
If Aditya’s salary is 25% more than Amit’s salary, then Amit’s salary is how much less than Aditya’s salary?
अगर आदित्य का वेतन अमित के वेतन से 25% अधिक है, तो अमित का वेतन ,आदित्य के वेतन से कितना कम है?

Aditya’s Salary = (100 + 25% of 100) = Rs. 125.
Difference between Aditya’s Salary and Amit’s Salary = 125 - 100 = Rs. 25.
% Difference (lower) = (25/125)*100 = 20%
Amit’s salary is 20% lower than Aditya’s.
If the numerator of a fraction is increased by 150% and the denominator is increased by 300%,then the resultant fraction is 5/12 . What was the original fraction?
यदि किसी भिन्न संख्या के अंश में 150% वृद्धि की गई है और हर मे 300% वृद्धि की गई है,तो परिणामी भिन्न 5/12 है मूल भिन्न क्या था?
A) 2/3
B) 1/3
C) 3/5
D) 3/5
Correct Answer : 2/3
Explanation : Let the original fraction =x/y
New fraction =(250x/100)/(400y/100)=5/12
250x/400y =5/12
5x/8y=5/12
x/y =8/12 =>2/3
The boys and girls in a college are in the ratio of 3 : 2. If 25% of the boys and 20% girls are adults, percentage of students who are minor is?
एक कॉलेज में लड़के और लड़कियां 3: 2 के अनुपात में हैं। यदि 25% लड़के और 20% लड़कियां वयस्क हैं, तो अवयस्क छात्रों का प्रतिशत क्या है?
A) 75%
B) 77%
C) 80%
D) 90%
Correct Answer : 77%
Explanation : Suppose boys = 3x and girls = 2x
Number of minors= (75% of 3x) + (80% of 2x)
=(75*3x/100)+(80*2x/100)
= 9x/4 + 8x/5 =77x/20
Required percentage =(77x/20)*(1/5x)*100 => 77%
The price of a car is Rs. 4,50,000. It was insured against accident to 90% of its price. When the car was damaged completely in an accident, the insurance company paid 95% of the insurance. What was the difference between the price of the car, and the amount received?

A) Rs. 65,000
B) Rs. 65,500
C) Rs. 65,250
D) Rs. 66,000
Correct Answer : Rs. 65,250
Explanation : The price of a car = 450000
Car was insured to 90% of its price,so insured price =450000*90/100
Insurance company paid 95% of the insurance
so amount paid by insurance company=450000*90/100 * 95/100=45*90*95 =384750
the difference between the price of the car and the amount received
=450000 − 384750
=65250

If X% of A is the same, as Y% of B, then Z% of B will be ?
यदि A का X% उतना ही है, जितना B का Y%, तो B का Z% परसेंट होगा?
A) (YX/X)% of A
B) (ZX/Y)% of A
C) (XY/Z)% of A
D) (Y/Z)% of A
Correct Answer : (ZX/Y)% of A
Explanation : As is given, X% of A=Y% of B
A*(X/100)=B*(Y/100)
A*X=B*Y
B=A*(X/Y)
So , Z% of B = B*(Z/100)
Z% of B = A*(X/Y) *(Z/100) = (ZX/Y)% of A

If a% of a + b% of b = 2% of ab, then what percent of a is b?
यदि a का a% + b का b% = ab का 2% है, तो a का कितना प्रतिशत b है?
A) 50%
B) 75%
C) 100%
D) 200%
Correct Answer : 100%
Explanation : As is given, a% of a + b% of b = 2% of ab
a/100 *a + b/100 *b = 2/100 *ab
a2 + b2 = 2ab
a2 - 2ab + b2 = 0
(a - b)2 = 0
a = b
Hence, Required percentage = b/a *100
= a/a *100
= 100%
