VALUE OF PERCENTAGE:
Value of percentage always depends on the quantity to which it refers: Consider
the statement, “65% of the students in this class are boys”. From the context, it is
understood that boys from 65% of the total number of students in the class. To
know the value of 65%, the value of the total number of student should be known.
If the total number of student is 200, then,
The number of boys =130;
It can also be written as (200) × (0.65) =130.
Note that the expressions 6%, 63%, 72%, 155% etc. Do not have any value
intrinsic to themselves. Their values depend on the quantities to which they refer.
To express the fraction equivalent to %:

Express the fraction with the denominator 100, then the numerator is the answer.
Example 1:
Express the fraction 11/12 into the per cent.
Solution:
11 2
11 12 × 100 91 3 2
= = = 91 %
12 100 100 3
To express % equivalent to fraction:
a% =a/100
Example 2:
Express 45 5/6% into fraction.
Solution:
5
5 45
45 % = 6 = 275 = 11.
6 100 6 × 100 24
Increase value
Increase % = × 100

Example 3:
Rent of the house is increased from Rs 7000 to Rs 7700. Express the increase in
price as a percentage of the original rent.
Solution:
Increase value = Rs 7700 – Rs 7000 = Rs 700
Increas value 700
Increase % = × 100 = × 100 = 10
Original value 7000
∴ Percentage rise = 10%
Decrease value
Decrease % = × 100
Original value
Example 4:
The cost of a bike last year was Rs19000. Its cost this year is Rs 17000. Find the
per cent decrease in its cost.
Decreas value
Decrease % = × 100
Original value
19000 − 17000
% decrease = × 100
19000

= × 100 = 10.5%.
19000
∴ Percentage decrease = 10.5%.
𝑥
If A is x % if C and B is y % of C, then A is × 100% of B.

Example 5:
A positive number is divided by 5 instead of being multiplied by 5. By what per cent
is the result of the required correct value?
Solution:
Let the number be 1, then the correct answer = 5

The incorrect answer that was obtained = .

The required % = × 100 = 4%
5 ×5
x% of a quantity is taken by the first, y% of the remaining is taken by the second

and z% of the remaining is taken by third person. Now, if A is left in the fund,
then the initial amount
A × 100 × 100 × 100
= in the beginning.
(100 − x)(100 − y)(100 − z)
x% of a quantity is added. Again, y% of the increased quantity is added. Again z%

of the increased quantity is added. Now it becomes A, then the initial amount
𝐴 × 100 × 100 × 100
=
(100 + 𝑥)(100 + 𝑦)(100 + 𝑧)
Example 6:
3.5% income is taken as tax and 12.5% of the remaining is saved. This leaves Rs.
4,053 to spend. What is the income?
Solution:
By direct method,
4053 × 100 × 100
Income = = Rs 4800.
(100 − 3.5)(100 − 12.5)
If the price of a commodity increases by r%, then reduction in consumption, so as

Page 5 of 36
If the price of a commodity decreases by r%, then the increase in consumption, so

𝑟
as not to decrease the expenditure is ( × 100) %.
100−𝑟
Example 7:
If the price of coal be raised by 20%, then find by how much a householder must
reduce his consumption of this commodity so as not to increase his expenditure?
Solution:
20
Reduction in consumption = ( × 100) %
100+20
20
= ( × 100) % = 16.67%
100 + 20
POPULATION FORMULA
If the original population of a town is P, and the annual increase is r%, then the
r n
population after n years is P (1 + ) and population before n years =
100
𝑟 𝑛
𝑃/ (1 + )
100
𝑟 𝑛
If the annual decrease be r%, then the population after n years is 𝑃 (1 − ) and
100
r n
population before n years = P/ (1 + )
100
Example 8:
The population of a certain town increased at a certain rate per cent annum. Now it
is 456976. Four years ago, it was 390625. What will it be 2 years hence?
Solution:
𝑟 4
Suppose the population increases at r% per annum. Then, 390625 (1 + ) =
100
456976
r 2 456976 676
(1 + ) = √ =
100 390625 625
r 2
Population 2 years hence = 456976 (1 + )
100
676
= 456976 × = 494265 approximately.
625
Example 9:

Page 6 of 36
The population of a city increase at the rate of 4% per annum. There is an

additional annual increase of 1% in the population due to the influx of job seekers.
Find percentage increase in the population after 2 years will be:
(a) 10
(b) 10.25
(c) 10.55
(d) 10.75
Solution:
(b) The net annual increase = 5%
Let the initial population be 100.
Then, population after 2 years = 100×1.05×1.05 = 110.25
Therefore, % increase in population = (110.25-100) = 10.25%
First Increase and then decrease:

If the value is first increased by x% and then decreased by y% then there is
𝑥𝑦
(𝑥 − 𝑦 − 100) % increase or decrease, according to the +ve or –ve sign
respectively.
Example 10:
A number is increased by 10% and then it is decreased by 10%. Find the net
increase or decrease per cent.
Solution:
10 × 10
% 𝑐ℎ𝑎𝑛𝑔𝑒 = = 1%
100
i.e. 1% decrease.
Average percentage rate of change over a period.
(New Value − Old Value) 100
= × % where n = period.
Old Value n
The Error
The percentage error = × 100%
True Value
SUCCESSIVE INCREASE OR DECREASE

In the value is increased successively by x% and y% then the final increase is
𝑥𝑦
given by (𝑥 + 𝑦 + )%

In the value is decreased successively by x% and y% then the final decrease is

𝑥𝑦
given by (−𝑥 − 𝑦 − )%

Example 11:
The price of a car is decreased by 10% and 20% in two successive years. What
per cent of price of a car is decreased after two years?
Solution:
Put x = -10 and y = -20, then
(−10)(−20)
-10-20+ = −28%
100
The price of the car decreases by 28%.
STUDENT AND MARKS

The percentage of passing marks in an examination is x%. If a candidate who
100(𝑦+𝑧)
scores y marks fails by z marks, then the maximum marks 𝑀 =
𝑥
A candidate scoring x% in an examination fails by ‘a’ marks, while another
candidate who scores y% marks gets ‘b’ marks more then the minimum required
100(𝑎+𝑏)
passing marks. Then the maximum marks 𝑀 =
𝑥
In an examination x% and y% students respectively fail in two different subjects
while z% students fail in both subjects then the % age of student who pass in both
the subjects will be {100 − (𝑥 + 𝑦 – 𝑧)}%
Example 12:
Vishal requires 40% to pass. If he gets 185 marks, falls short by 15 marks, what
was the maximum he could have got?
Solution:
If Vishal has 15 marks more, he could have scored 40% marks.
Now, 15 marks more then 185 is 185+15 = 200
Let the maximum marks be x, then 40% of x = 200
40 200 ×100
⇒ × x = 200 ⇒ x = =500
100 40
Thus, maximum marks = 500
Alternate method:
100(185 + 15) 100 × 200
Maximum marks = = = 500
40 40
Example 13:

Page 8 of 36
A candidate scores 15% and fails by 30 marks, while another candidate who
scores 40% marks, gets 20 marks more then the minimum required marks to pass
the pass the examination. Find the maximum marks of the examination.
Solution:
By short cut method:
100(30 + 20)
Maximum marks = = 200
40 − 15
2-DIMENSIONAL FIGURE AND AREA

If the sides of a triangle, square, rectangle, rhombus or radius of a circle are
a(a+200)
increased by a%, its area is increased by %
100
If the sides of a triangle, square, rectangle, rhombus or radius of a circle are
decreased by a %
a(200−a)
Then its area is decreased by %.
100
Example 14:
If the radius of a circle is increased by 10%, what is the percentage increase in its
area?
Solution:
Now, radius is increased by 10%
10 (10+200)
So, Area is increased by = 21%
100
Example 15:
If the length and width of a rectangular garden were each increased by 20%, then
what would be the per cent increase in the area of the garden?
(a) 20%
(b) 24%
(c) 36%
(d) 44%
Solution: (d)
Le the original length and width of the garden be x and y units, respectively.
Then, the original area = x × y = xy square units
New are = 1.2x × 1.2y= 1.44xy square units
1.44xy − xy
% increase in area = = 44%

salary?
Solution
By direct method,
B’s salary is less than A’s salary by
50 50
( × 100) % = × 100 = 33.33%

Example 17:
Ravi’s weight is 25% that of Meena’s and 40% that of Tara’s. What percentage of
Tara’s weight is Meena’s weight.
Solution:
Let Meena’s weight be x kg and Tara’s weight be y kg. Then Ravi’s weight = 25%
of Meena’s weight
25
= × x … . . (i)
100
Also, Ravi’s weight = 40% of Tara’s weight
40
= × y … . . (ii)
100
From (i) and (ii), we get
25 40
×x= ×y
100 100
⇒ 25x = 40y
8
⇒ 5x = 8y ⇒ x = y
5
Meena’s weight as the percentage of Tara’s weight
8
x y
= × 100 = 5 × 100
y y

= × 100 = 160

Hence, Meena’s weight is 160% of Tara’s weight.
