Answer:
The answer is given in question
i.e. 25%
Let the price of tomatoes be 100
Now,
The price of tomatoes increased =100 + 25 % of 100 =100 + 25 / 100 * 100 =
Here 100 100 cancelled = 100 +25 =25
The price of tomatoes should be decreased = 125 - 25 % of 100 =125 - 25 / 100 * 100 =
Here100 100 cancelled = 125 - 25 = 100
Therefore the answer is = 25%
