  • Question 1
    1 / -0
    $$\dfrac{3}{5}$$ as a percent is
    Solution
    $$\cfrac{3}{5}$$ as a percent is$$=\cfrac{3}{5}\times 100=60\%$$
  • Question 2
    1 / -0
    Rahul purchased a scooter at $$\left(\dfrac{13}{15}\right)^{th}$$ of its selling price and sold it at $$12%$$ more than its selling price. His gain is _____.
    Solution

    Let selling price be x rs

    Then cost price =$$\dfrac{13}{15}$$$$\times x$$

    Receipt $$=\left( 100+12 \right)%$$ of $$x$$

    $$=112%$$,of$$,x$$

      $$ =\dfrac{112\times x}{25} $$

     $$ =\dfrac{28}{25}$$ $$\times x$$

    Hence ,Rahul gain

       =$$\dfrac{28x}{25}$$-$$\dfrac{13x}{15} $$

     $$ =\dfrac{84x-65x}{75} $$

     $$ =\dfrac{19x}{75} $$

    Gain in percent  =$$\dfrac{19x}{75}\times \dfrac{15}{13x}\times 100$$

    =$$\dfrac{380}{13}%=29\dfrac{3}{13}%$$

     =29$$\dfrac{3}{13}%$$

  • Question 3
    1 / -0
    If the cost of a dozen soaps is $$Rs\ 285.60$$, what will be the cost of $$15$$ such soaps?
    Solution
    Cost of $$12$$ soaps $$=285.60$$

    Cost of one soap $$=\dfrac{285.60}{12}$$

    Cost of $$15$$ soaps $$=\dfrac{285.60}{12}\times{15}=Rs.357$$
  • Question 4
    1 / -0
    A housewife saved Rs. $$250$$ in buying a dress on sale, If she spent Rs. $$25$$ for the dress, she saved about:  
    Solution
    The housewife saved $$250$$ Rs and she spent $$25$$ Rs on the dress.

    $$\Rightarrow $$Actual cost $$=275$$

    Saved percentage =$$\dfrac {250}{275}×100$$

    $$\therefore $$saved percentage $$=90\%$$
  • Question 5
    1 / -0
    A dishonest dealer uses a scale of $$'90$$ cm instead of a metre scale and claims to sell at cost price. His profit is :  
    Solution
    Dealer uses a scale $$=90\ cm$$
    Original scale          $$=100\ cm$$

    Profit in % $$=\dfrac{100}{90}\times 100$$

                      $$=11.11$$%
  • Question 6
    1 / -0
    A shopkeeper earns $$15$$% profit on a shirt even after allowing $$31$$% discount on the marked price.If the market price $$1250$$, then the cost price of the shirt is 
    Solution
    According to the problem the S.P and C.P is
    $$\begin{array}{l} Discount=\dfrac { { 31 } }{ { 100 } } \times 1250 \\ =387.5 \\ S.P=1250-387.5 \\ S.P=862.5 \\ C.P=\dfrac { { 100 } }{ { 100+15 } } \times 862.5 \\ =\dfrac { { 100 } }{ { 115 } } \times 862.5 \\ =\dfrac { { 17250 } }{ { 23 } }  \\ =750 \end{array}$$
    Therefore, the cost price is Rs $$750$$.
  • Question 7
    1 / -0
    A shopkeeper sells a sweater at a loss of $$5\%$$. If he had sold it for Rs. $$260$$ more, he would have made a profit of $$15\%$$. Calculate the purchase price of the sweater.
    Solution
    case1:Let CP be $$x$$ 
               Loss=5%
    $$S{P_1} = x - 5\% of\,x$$
    $$S{P_1} = 95\% \,of\,x = \dfrac{{95}}{{100}}x$$

    Case2: CP$$=x$$,
    $${P_2} = 15\% $$
    $$S{P_2} = x + 15\% of\,x = \dfrac{{115}}{{100}}x$$

    Difference in SP is given $$260$$
    Thus,
    \begin{array}{l} S{ P_{ 2 } }-S{ P_{ 1 } }=260 \\ \dfrac { { 115x-95x } }{ { 100 } } =260 \\ \Rightarrow 20x=260\times 100 \\ \Rightarrow x=\dfrac { { 26000 } }{ { 20 } }  \\ \Rightarrow x=1300 \end{array}
    Thus purchase price is $$1300$$ Rs.
  • Question 8
    1 / -0
    What percent is $$150\ \text{ml}$$ of $$3.5\ \text{litres}$$?
    Solution
    Convert both the figures into same units:
    $$3.5\ \text{L} =3.5\times 1000\ \text{mL}= 3500\ \text{mL}$$ 
    Required percentage $$=\dfrac{150}{3500}\times 100\ \%=\dfrac{30}{7}\ \% = 4\dfrac{2}{7}\ \%$$
  • Question 9
    1 / -0
    Write as percentage $$4\dfrac {4}{20}$$
    Solution
    $$4\dfrac{4}{20}$$
    $$\Rightarrow \dfrac{84}{20}\times 100\Rightarrow 420\%$$

  • Question 10
    1 / -0
    $$16\frac{2}{3}\% $$ of $$600$$gm $$ - 33\frac{1}{3}\% $$ of $$180$$gm
    Solution
    $$16 \dfrac{2}{3}\%$$ of $$600\ gm-33 \dfrac{1}{3} \%$$ of $$180\ gm$$
    $$\Rightarrow \left[ \dfrac{50}{3} \times \dfrac{1}{100} (600)- \left( \dfrac{100}{3} \times \dfrac{1}{100} \right) (180) \right] gm$$
    $$\Rightarrow \left[ \dfrac{600}{6}- \dfrac{180}{3} \right]\ gm$$
    $$\Rightarrow (100-60)\ gm$$
    $$\Rightarrow 40\ gm$$
    $$\therefore [16 2/3 \% \ of\ 600\ gm-33 1/3 \% \ of\ 180\ gm]=40\ gm$$
