Question

the number 12000 first increased by 15% and then further increased by 25% find the number

Answer 1

Answer:

17250

Step-by-step explanation:

Increasing by 15%   :

New no. = 12000 + 15% of 12000

              = 12000 + (15/100) x 12000

              = 12000 + 1800

              = 13800

Increasing by 25%  :

No. = 13800 + 25% of 13800

      = 13800 + (25/100) x 13800

      = 13800 + 3450

      = 17250

Answer 2

Question:-

• The number 12000 first increased by 15% and then further increased by 25% find the number.

To Find:-

• Find the number.

Solution:-

Increasing by 15%

$\tt\implies \: 12000 + \dfrac { 15 } { 100 } \times 12000$

$\tt\implies \: 12000 + 1800$

$\tt\implies \: 13800$

Now ,

Increasing by 25%

$\tt\implies \: 13800 + \dfrac { 25 } { 100 } \times 13800$

$\tt\implies \: 13800 + 3450$

$\tt\implies \: 17250$
