Question

The price of a scooter was Rs 34000 last year . It has increased by 20% this year . What is the price now ?​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Original price =Rs 34000

Increment=20%

New price=34000+20% of 34000

= 34000+20/100×34000

= 34000+6800 (by solving)

= 40800 Rs.

So,the new price of scooter is Rs. 40800

Answer 2

we have ,

old price of scooter = Rs 34,000

percent increased=20%

so,

increase in price /old price ×100

=>20 = increase in price / 34000 ×100

=> increase in price = 340×20=6800

and, mew price =old price +new price

34000+6800

=Rs 40, 800
