Question

if a price of an item is increased by 30% and then decreased by 30% then the final price compared to original price? ​

Answer 1

Answer:

91% of the initial price.   Or we say, it is decreased by 9%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the initial price be '100'.

It is now increased by 30%, so new price :

100 + (30% of 100)

100 + 30

130

 Now, it is decreased by 30%, new price is:

130 - (30% of 130)

130 - 39

91

     % = (91/100) * 100 %

         = 91%

New price is 91% of the initial price.

Answer 2

Answer:

Original price = ₹ 100

Final price = ₹ 91

So, the price of the item is reduced by ₹ 9.

or, a decrease of 9 %.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the original price of item be ₹ 100.

then,

The price of item is increased by 30%.

Therefore,

Increased price = ₹ { 100 + (30% of 100) }

= ₹ 130

So, now the price of item is ₹ 130.

It is given that the price is decreased by 30%.

Therefore,

Final price = ₹ {130 - (30% of 130) }

= ₹ 130 - 39

= ₹ 91.
