Explanation

• Percentage is a way of expressing a number as a fraction of 100.
• Example: 25% means 25 out of 100.
• Percentage Formula
• Percentage= (Part ÷ Total) × 100​

Explanation

Let the number be x.

3% of x = 60

3/100 x X = 60

X= 60 x 1000/3

$$x = frac{60 times 100}{3}$$ x=2000​

Explanation

Formula: SI = (P × R × T) / 100

SI = (10,000 × 8 × 2) / 100 = Rs. 1,600

Explanation

Given:

Increment in number = 20% of the number

Decrement in number = 20% of the new number

Concept used:

Net increase or decrease percent = {(Original number or Final number) - (Final number or original number) ÷ Original number} × 100

Calculation:

Let the original number be 100

When the number is increased by 20%

New Number = 100 + 20% of 100

⇒ 100 + 20

⇒ 120

Now, the number is decreased by 20%

Final number = New number – 20% of new number

⇒ 120 – 20% of 120

⇒ 120 – 24

⇒ 96

∴ Net Decrease in percentage = { (100 – 96) / 100} × 100

⇒ {4/100} × 100

⇒ 4%

∴ The net decrease percentage is 4%.

Explanation

Year 1: 250 × 1.10 = Rs. 275  

Year 2: 275 × 1.10 = Rs. 302.50  

Or directly: 250 × (1.10)² = 250 × 1.21 = Rs. 302.50
