Answer 1

• 20 is the right answer
• 25%=200
• 1000 is bycicle amount
• 1000 /20000 = 20

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

total rs with him = 20,000

cost of one cycle = 800rs

if the cost is increased by 25%

new cost of cycle = 800 * 25/100

                             =200 rs

therefor new cost of cycle = 1000rs

so

he could purchase cycle = total money with him/cost of one cycle

                                         =20,000/1000

                                         =20 cycles

so he could purchase 20 cycles
