Given,
The number 'n' is first increased by 25%.
25
So, the new value of n
=n+n×25100=n×54
Now, the value of is again decreased by 20.
So, 20of the new value
=n×54×20100=n×14
So, the new value
=n×54 - n×14=n
Net percent change
=amount changedoriginal value×100
Net change = n - n = 0.
So on substituting the values we get:
Percent change = 0n×100 = 0
So, there is no percentage change.

Given that,
Number circles = 26
Number of hearts = 1
Number of stars=1
∴ Number of circles: number of hearts
⇒ 26 : 1
∴ Number of hearts: number of stars
⇒ 1 : 1
:
4 drivers: 1hour
⇒ 4 : 1
20 drivers: 5hours
⇒ 20: 5⇒ 4 : 1
∴ Given ratios are equivalent.

Answer: 1 Mark
Let the costprice of item sold at loss be₹ x
⇒x−10%ofx=45
⇒x−10100×x=45
⇒x−110×x=45
⇒10x−x10=45
⇒x=50⇒Cost price is₹50
⇒Loss = ₹(50 - 45) = ₹5
Similarly, letthe costprice of an item sold at profitbe ₹y.
⇒y+25%ofy=40
⇒y+25100×y=40
⇒y+14×y=40
⇒4y+y4=40
⇒y=32⇒Cost price is₹32
⇒Profit = ₹(40 - 32) = ₹8
Net gain = ₹(8 - 5) = ₹3
So, the shopkeeper makes a profit of ₹ 3.

Answer: 1 Mark
Given that,
Population 2 years ago =62500.
Rate of decrease = 4 % p.a.
For population 1 year ago,
P = 62500 , R = 4 %, T = 1 year
∴S.I=P×R×T100
⇒I=62500×4×1100
⇒I=2500
⇒ After 1 year the population will decrease by 2500 people
∴ Population 1 year ago is = 62500 - 2500 = 60,000
For present population,
P = 60,000, R = 4 %, T = 1 year
∴S.I=P×R×T100
⇒I=60000×4×1100
⇒I=2400
⇒ Present population = 60,000 - 2400 = 57,600
[We are subtractingthe population because population is decreasing by 4% p.a.]
The present population is 57,600.

Formula: 1 Mark
Answer: 1 Mark
Given that,
Marked Price of the watch = ₹ 1250.
6% discount on MP
⇒6100×1250=₹75
SP = MP - Discount.
SP = ₹ 1250 - ₹ 75.
SP = ₹ 1175.
The selling price of the watch is ₹ 1175.

Let Nishu's pocket money be n
Given, she saves 10% of her pocket money.
⇒ 10% of n = ₹ 120
⇒10100×n=120
⇒n=120×10010
⇒n=1200
So, Nishu's pocket money is ₹ 1200.

Answer: 1 Mark
Given,
Principal = ₹ 56,000
Time = 2 years
Interest = ₹ 280
Let the rate of interest be R % p.a.
S.I=P×R×T100
⇒R=I×100P×T
⇒R=280×10056000×2
⇒R=280560×2
⇒R=14=0.25
∴ The rate of interest is 0.25 % .
We have to find the interest if the rate of interest was 11 %,
Interest = P×R×T100
On substituting the values we get,
Interest = 56000×11×2100 = ₹12320
Hence, the interest in two years if the rate was 11% is ₹ 12320.

Answer: 1 Mark
Given, Selling price = ₹ 13,500
Loss%=20%
Let the cost price be x.
∴Loss=20%ofx
Selling price = Cost price - Loss
⇒13500=x−20100×x
⇒13500=x−15x
⇒13500=45x
⇒x=16875
Therefore, she bought it for ₹ 16875.
So, cost price of the article = ₹ 16875
20%of the cost price
=20100×16875=₹3375
Net amount = 16875 + 3375 = ₹ 20250
So, in order to sell the washing machine at 20% profit, she needs to sell it at ₹ 20250.
