Here are the solutions to the above questions of Percentage asked by TCS in SSC CGL Tier 1.
Sol 1. (c)
According to the question
300-3x = 100 + x
X = 50
50% of 210 = 105
(50+20)% of 180 = 126
Required percentage
Sol 2. (c)
Income : Expenditure Savings
60 : 50 → 10
After increase in Income and Expenditure.
96 : 85 → 11
Therefore, Net Increase in Savings = 1/10 × 100=10%
Sol 3. (d)
25% = 1/4
⇒ A : B = 5 : 4
65% = 13/20
⇒ C : A+B = 7 : 20
Balancing the ratio for A + B
A = 100, B = 80 and C = 63
Required % age
Sol 4. (c)
50% = 1/2
A:B = 3:2
Let income of A = 300 unit and B = 200 unit
Total = 300+200 = 500 unit
Increased income of A =300× 140/100= 420
Increased income of B = 200× 190/100= 380
Total income of A and B = 420+380 = 800
Required % = 800-500 /500 × 100= 60%
Sol 5. (c) 20% = 1/5
Let the original price = 50 unit
⇒ decreased price = 40 unit
Let the original sale = 100 unit
⇒ New sale = (100+x) unit
Initial revenue = 50 x 100 units
⇒ Increased revenue = 40 × (100+x) units
According to the question
(50 x 100)× 160/100= 40 × (100+x)
⇒ 200 = 100 + x
⇒ x = 100
Sol 6. (b)
20% = 1/5 , 30% = 3/10 and 25% = 1/4
⇒ A:B = 4:5 and C:D = 13 : 10 and A:D = 4 : 3
Balancing the ratio for A and D
A:B:C:D = 40:50:39:30
Let
B = 50 unit and C = 39 unit
Now, 50 78100= 39
⇒ C is 0.78 of B .
Sol 7. (a)
We know that,
Price x Consumption = Expenditure
20% = 1/5 and 8% = 2/25
Initial : New
Price 5 : 6
Expenditure 25 : 27
_______________
Consumption 25/5 : 27/6
10 : 9
%age decrease in consumption = 10-9/10 × 100 = 10% ans
Alternate :
Direct Trick
Desired percentage = 12120x 100 = 10%
Sol 8. (a)
85% = 17/20
Let the original number = 20
According to the question
75 + 17 unit = 20 unit
1 unit = 25
Original number (20 unit) = 25 x 20 = 500
Sol 9. (a)
15% = 3/20
Let sudha’s income = 2000
⇒ Sudha’s saving = 300
⇒ Sudha’s expenditure = 2000-300 = 1700
Sudha’s increased saving = 300 x 160/100= 480
Sudha’s increased expenditure = 1700 x 120/100= 2040
Sudha’s increased income = 2040+480 = 2520
Desired percentage = 2520-2000/2000 × 100 = 26 %
Sol 10.(b)
20% = 1/5 and 25% = 1/4
A:B = 4:5 and C:D = 6 : 5 and A:D = 4 : 3
Balancing the ratio for A and D
A:B:C:D = 20:25:18:15
Let
B = 25 unit and C = 18 unit
Now, 25 × 72/100= 18
⇒ C is 0.72 of B .
Sol 11. (a)
75% = 3/4
Let the income of Surbhi = 400 unit
saving of Surbhi = 100 unit
So expenditure of Surbhi = 400-100 = 300 unit
Increased income of surbhi = 400× 220/100= 480 unit
Decreased saving of Surbhi = 100× 99/100= 99 unit
New expenditure of surbhi = 480-99 = 381 unit
Desired %age =381-300/300 × 100 = 27 %
Sol 12. (a)
40% = 2/5
Let the income of B = 500
⇒ The income of A = 700
Total income of A and B = 1200
Increased income of A = 700 × 125/100= 875
Increased income of B = 500 × 140/100= 700
Total income of A and B = 875+700 = 1575
