Question

A9. What will be the combined increase in percentage
if the price of an article is first increased by 10%
and then by 5%?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Ans:- Increase in persentage = 15.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

Example:-

Cost of article = ₹100

Cost Increases by adding in 10% :-

= 100×10/100

=₹10

Total cost of article after increase in 10% :-

=₹100+₹10

=₹110

Cost Increases by adding in 5% in ₹110:-

= 110×5/100

=₹5.5

Total cost of article after increase in 5% in ₹110:-

=₹110+₹5.5

=₹115.5

But If we directly increase 15.5% in ₹100

But If we directly increase 15.5% in ₹100It will cost:-

=₹100×15.5/100

=₹15.5

Thus, the cost article directly get to us after the increase of 15.5%:-

₹115.5
