Answer 1

Question (1)

price is increased by 10% , and new price is = 9.35/kg

it means this is the value of 110% , and we have to find old price means we have to find 100% .

110% --------------- 9.35

100% -------------- 9.35*100/110 = RS. 8.5 /kg (Ans.)

Question (2)

initial total goat = 100%

10% of goat died in farm , means = 90% left

again, 40% of remaining died due to disease . it means 60% of remaining left = 90 ka 60% = 54% left

value of this 54% is given = 594 .

and we have to find initial = 100%

so,

54% ------------- 594

100% ------------- 594*100/54 = 1100 (ans.)

or, we can solve it directly .

10% died means 90% left ,

40% died means 60% left,

initial = 594*100/90*100/60 = 1100 (Ans.)

Answer 2

Answer:

Older price of sugar = Rs 8.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the old price of sugar be x

given that,

it increased by 10 %

= x + x × 10%

= x + x × 10/100

x + x/10

= 11x/10

given the new price = 9.35

so,

11x/10 = 9.35

11x = 93.5

x = 93.5/11

x = 8.5

so,

Older price of sugar = Rs 8.5
