Answer:
15 per kg
Step-by-step explanation:
When it is increased by 20%:
New price = 10 + (20% of 10)
= 10 + (20/100 x 10)
= 10 + 2 = 12
Then(after being 12), it is increased by 25%:
New price = 12 + (25% of 12)
= 12 + (25/100 x 12)
= 12 + 3 = 15
New price is 15 per kg.

Answer:
Rs.15 per kg
Step-by-step explanation:
Original price of sugar = Rs.10
Price after increasing = 120% of 10 = 120/100 × 10 = Rs.12
Price after increasing = 125% of 12 = 125/100 × 12 = Rs.15
Hence, the new cost of sugar is Rs.15 per kg.
