Question

The subscription fee of a dancing academy is increased from Rs.980 to Rs.1000 per month. Find the ratio of the increased fee to the original fee

Answer 1

Ratio of the increased fee to the original fee is 50 : 49.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the subscription fee of a dancing academy is increased from Rs. 980 to Rs. 1000 per month.

We have to find the ratio of the increased fee to the original fee.

So, according to the question;

The Original subscription fee of a dancing academy = Rs 980

Increased subscription fee of a dancing academy = Rs 1000

The ratio of x and y is given by = x : y =  $\frac{x}{y}$

So, Ratio of the increased fee to the original fee = $\frac{\text{Increased fee}}{\text{Original fee}}$

                                                                                =  $\frac{1000}{980}$

                                                                                =  $\frac{50}{49}$ = 50 : 49

Therefore, the ratio of the increased fee to the original fee is 50 : 49.
