50%
100%
75%
125%

Option “A” is correct. x% of x + y% of y = 2% of xy It can be written as; 0.01x²+ 0.01y² = 0.02 × xy ⇒ x²+ y² = 2xy ⇒ x²+ y² – 2xy = 0 ⇒ (x – y)² = 0 ⇒ x = y ∴ x is 100% of y.

2. There are three friends P, Q and R. The income of Q is 25% more than the income of P and the income of R is 20% more than the incomes of Q. Income of R is what percent more than the income of P? तीन दोस्त P, Q और R हैं। Q की आय P की आय से 25% अधिक है और R की आय Q की आय से 20% अधिक है, तो R की आय P की आय से कितने प्रतिशत अधिक है?

Option “B” is correct. माना कि P, 4x है। Q की आय = 4x × [5 / 4] = 5x R की आय = 5x × [6 / 5] = 6x ∴ आवश्यक प्रतिशत = [(6x – 4x) / 4x] × 100 = 50%

3. A is 20% more than the B if A is increased by 10% and B increased by 20%, then by what percent A is more than B? A, B से 20% अधिक है, यदि A में 10% और B में 20% की वृद्धि की जाती है, तब A, B से कितने प्रतिशत अधिक है?

Option “D” is correct. Let the value of B be 100x. Value of A = 100x × [6/5] = 120x Value of A after increment = 120x × [11/10] = 132x Value of B after increment = 100 × [6/5] = 120x Required percentage = [(132x – 120x)/120x] × 100 = 10%

4. If the income of A is 24% less than income of B, then what percentage is B’s income is more than that of A? यदि A की आय, B की आय से 24% कम है, तो B की आय, A की आय से कितने प्रतिशत अधिक है?

600/17%
600/29%
600/19%
600/31%

Option “C” is correct. Let the income of B be 100x Income of A = 100x × (76/100) = 76x Income of B more than the income of A by = 100x – 76x = 24x Required percentage = (24x/76x) × 100 = 600/19%

5. If B exceed A by 25%, then A is less than B by यदि B, A से 25% अधिक है, तो A, B से कितना प्रतिशत कम है?

Option “C” is correct. Given: B exceed A by 25% Calculation: [(100 + 25)/100] × A = B 5A = 4B A/B = 4/5 Let A = 4x and B = 5x B – A = 5x – 4x = x Required percentage = (x/5x) × 100 = 20% ∴ A is less than B by 20%

6. The price of oil is increased by 20%. However, its consumption decreased by

8 \frac{1}{3} %

. What is the percentage increase or decrease in the expenditure on it? तेल के मूल्य में 20% की वृद्धि होती है। हालाँकि, इसकी खपत में 8 1/3 की कमी आती है। इसके व्यय में प्रतिशत वृद्धि या कमी क्या है?

7. 60% of a number is 168, then what is the number? एक संख्या का 60%, 168 है, तो वह संख्या क्या है?

Option “B” is correct. Let the number be x According to question, x × 60% = 168 ⇒ x × 3/5 = 168 ⇒ x = 280 ∴ The required number is 280.
