Question

If the price of apple increases to 20% then a man get 5 less apple in 50 Rupees. If the price of apple decreases to 20% then how many apple get extra in 40 rs​

Answer 1

Answer:

20% increase in price means 1/5 increase.

This will lead to decrease of 1/(5+1)th in consumption of apples.

=> 1/6th apples = 5

=> Original number of apples = 5x6=30

=> Original price = 600/30=Rs 20

Increased price = 20 x 1.20 = Rs 24

=> Difference between two prices = Rs 4
