Answers & Solutions for\u00a0Percentage Questions for SSC CGL PDF:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

1) Answer (D)<\/strong>
\nit is given that
\n0.3 A + 0.4 B = 0.8 B
\n0.3 A = 0.4 B
\nA = 4\/3 B
\nB = 3\/4 A
\nhence B is 75 % of A<\/p>\n

2) Answer (D)<\/strong>
\nLet total income of man =\u00a0Rs. 100x
\nAmount spent = $\\frac{59}{100} \\times 100x = Rs. 59x$
\n=> Money saved = $100x – 59x = 41x$
\n\u2234\u00a0Percentage of his expenditure that he saves = $\\frac{41x}{59x} \\times 100$
\n= 69.49 %<\/p>\n

3) Answer (B)<\/strong>
\nlet the retailer buys 110 gram in Rs 100 because of 10 % cheating
\nso cost price = 1 gram = Rs 100\/110 = Rs 0.909
\nand retailer sells 90 gram in Rs 100
\nand hence selling price = Rs 100 \/ 90 = Rs 1.111
\nProfit % = $\\frac{1.111- 0.909}{0.909}\u00a0= 22.22%$<\/p>\n

4)\u00a0 Answer (B)<\/strong>
\nTrain ticket cost for 1 day = Rs. 130
\n=> Cost for 29 days = $29\u00a0\\times\u00d7\u00a0130 = Rs. 3770$
\nCost of monthly pass = Rs. 3091.40
\n=> Money saved = 3770 – 3091.40 = Rs 678.6
\n\u2234\u00a0Required % = $\\frac{678.6}{3770} \\times 100 = 18%$
\n=> Ans – (B)<\/p>\n

5) Answer (A)<\/strong>
\nLet the number of boys be 2y and number of girls be 3y
\n25 % of boys = 0.25 x 2y = 0.5y
\n30% of girls = 0.3 x 3y = 0.9y
\ntotal scholarship holder = 0.5y + 0.9y = 1.4y
\n% of no scholarship holder = $\\frac{3.6y}{5y}\u00a0\\times 100 = 72%$<\/p>\n

6) Answer (D)<\/strong>
\nlet the length of rectangle be L units and breadth be B units.
\nSo area of rectangle = L x B
\nAs both length and breadth has been increased by 20%
\nSo new length = 1.2L
\nNew breadth = 1.2B
\nNew area = 1.2L x 1.2B = 1.44LB
\nPercentage increase in area = $\\frac{1.44LB – LB}{LB}\u00a0\u200b\\times 100 = 44%$<\/p>\n

7) Answer (C)<\/strong>
\nlet the income of person be Rs y
\nSo his expenditure be 75% of income which is = 0.75y
\nSaving = y- 0.75y = 0.25y
\nNow after increment of 20 % in income the new income becomes = 1.2y
\nGiven that bew expenditure is 10% more than previous one.So , new expenditure is = 1.1 \u00d7 0.75y = 0.825y
\nNew savings = 1.2y – 0.825y = 0.375y
\nPercentage increase in savings = $\\frac {0.375y-0.25y}{0.25y} \\times\u00a0100 = 50%<\/p>\n

8) Answer (C)<\/strong>
\nMarked price = Rs. 1280
\nSelling price = Rs. 900

\nWeight of 1st ball = 3.5 kg and weight of second ball = 7.5 kg
\n=> Percentage weight of the 1st ball with respect to 2nd ball
\n= $\\frac{3.5}{7.5} \\times 100$
\n= $\\frac{35}{3} \\times 4$ = $\\frac{140}{3}$
\n= $46\\frac{2}{3}%$<\/p>\n

10) Answer (B)<\/strong>
\nLet the number be 30
\nWhen the student multiplied it by 5\/6, => original result = $\\frac{5}{6} \\times 30 = 25$
\nWhen the student multiply it by 6\/5, => New result = $\\frac{6}{5} \\times 30 = 36$
\n=> Percentage error in calculation = $\\frac{(36 – 25)}{36} \\times 100$
\n= $\\frac{1100}{36} = 30.56%$
\n=> Ans – (B)<\/p>\n
