Question

the price of petrol was rupees 65 the price was first increased by 4% and then reduced by 5% what is the price of petrol now​

Answer 1

Price of petrol = 65

Increased price = 4%

So, Increased Price = 100 + 4% of 100

=> 100 + (4/100) * 100

=> 100 + 4

=> 104

Now, this obtained price is decreased by 5%

=> 104 - 5% of 104

=> 104 - 5.2

=> 98.8

Hence, price of petrol is 98.8.
