Question 80

The price of a book was first increased by 25% and then reduced by 20%. What is the change in its original price?

Solution

let the price of the book be Rs100

Increase 25% =   $$\frac{125}{100}100$$

= 125Rs

decrease 20% = $$\frac{80}{100}125$$

=100Rs

Net change in the price

= $$\frac{100-100}{100\times 100}$$

= no change
