Question

If cost of rise is increased by 25% then family expenditure is increased by 10% , before family was consuming 40 kg of rice then how much it will consume now​

Answer 1

Answer:

35.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose initial price per kg of rice is 100 then their expenditure is 4000.

Now their expenditure is only increased by only 10% i.e. 4400.

Increased price of rice=125.

So new consumption =4400125=35.2

Alternate solution :

OldNewPrice45Consumption40?Expenditure160160+16=176

∴ New consumption =1765=35.2
