Two students appeared at an examination. One of them secured 9 marks more than the other and his marks were 56% of the sum of their marks. The marks obtained by them are:

Detailed Solution for Olympiad Test: Percentage -1 - Question 2

Let their marks be (x + 9) and x.
Then, x + 9 = 56/100(x + 9 + x)
⇒ 25(x + 9) = 14(2x + 9)
⇒ 3x = 99
⇒ x = 33
So, their marks are 42 and 33.

A fruit seller had some apples. He sells 40% apples and still has 420 apples. Originally, he had:

Detailed Solution for Olympiad Test: Percentage -1 - Question 3

Suppose originally he had x apples.
Then, (100 – 40) % of x = 420
⇒ (60/100) × x = 420
⇒ x = (420 × 100)/60 = 700

Save

What percentage of numbers from 1 to 70 has 1 or 9 in the unit’s digit?
Detailed Solution for Olympiad Test: Percentage -1 - Question 4

Clearly, the numbers which have 1 or 9 in the unit’s digit have squares that end in the digit 1.
Such numbers from 1 to 70 are 1, 9, 11, 19, 21, 29, 31, 39, 41, 49, 51, 59, 61, 69.
The number of these numbers = 14
Required percentage = (14/70 × 100) %
= 20%.

Olympiad Test: Percentage -1 - Question 5
Save

If A = x% of y and B = y% of x, then which of the following is true?
Detailed Solution for Olympiad Test: Percentage -1 - Question 5

x% of y = (x/100 × y) = (y/100 × x) = y% of x Therefore, A = B.

Olympiad Test: Percentage -1 - Question 6
Save

If 20% of a = b, then b% of 20 is the same as:
Detailed Solution for Olympiad Test: Percentage -1 - Question 6

20% of a = b
⇒ (20/100) a = b
∴ b% of 20 = (b/100 × 20)
= [(20/100)a × 1/100 × 20]
= (4/100)a = 4% of a

Olympiad Test: Percentage -1 - Question 7
Save

In a certain school, 20% of students are below 8 years of age. The number of students above 8 years of age is 2/3 of the number of students of 8 years of age which is 48. What is the total number of students in the school?
Detailed Solution for Olympiad Test: Percentage -1 - Question 7

Let the number of students be x. Then,
Number of students above 8 years of age
= (100 – 20) % of x = 80% of x.
∴ 80% of x = 48 + 2/3 of 48
⇒ (80/100) x = 80
⇒ x = 100

Olympiad Test: Percentage -1 - Question 8
Save

Two numbers A and B are such that the sum of 5% of A and 4% of B is two-third of the sum of 6% of A and 8% of B. Find the ratio of A : B.
Detailed Solution for Olympiad Test: Percentage -1 - Question 8

5% of A + 4% of B
= 2/3 (6% of A + 8% of B)
(5/100)A + (4/100)B
= 2/3[(6/100)A + (8/100)B]
⇒ (1/20)A + (1/25)B = (1/25)A + (4/75)B
⇒ (1/20 – 1/25)A = (4/75 – 1/25)B
⇒ (1/100)A = (1/75) B
A/B = 100/75 = 4/3
∴ Required ratio = 4 : 3

Olympiad Test: Percentage -1 - Question 9
Save

A student multiplied a number by 3/5 instead of 5/3. What is the percentage error in the calculation?
Detailed Solution for Olympiad Test: Percentage -1 - Question 9

Let the number be x.
Then, error = (5/3) x – (3/5) x = (16/15) x.
Error% = [(16x/15) × (3/5x) × 100] %
= 64%

Olympiad Test: Percentage -1 - Question 10

In an election between two candidates, one got 55% of the total valid votes, 20% of the votes were invalid. If the total number of votes was 7500, the number of valid votes that the other candidate got, was:
Detailed Solution for Olympiad Test: Percentage -1 - Question 10

Number of valid votes = 80% of 7500
= 6000
∴ Valid votes polled by other candidates
= 45% of 6000 = (45/100 × 6000) = 2700

Olympiad Test: Percentage -1 - Question 11
Save

Three candidates contested an election and received 1136, 7636 and 11628 votes respectively. What percentage of the total votes did the winning candidate get?
Detailed Solution for Olympiad Test: Percentage -1 - Question 11

Total number of votes polled
= (1136 + 7636 + 11628) = 20400
∴ Required percentage
= [(11628/20400)× 100] % = 57%

Olympiad Test: Percentage -1 - Question 12
Save

Two tailors X and Y are paid a total of Rs 550 per week by their employer. If X is paid 120 percent of the sum paid to Y, how much is Y paid per week?
Detailed Solution for Olympiad Test: Percentage -1 - Question 12

Let the sum paid to Y per week be Rs z.
Then, z + 120% of z = 550.
⇒ z + (120/100) z = 550
⇒ (11/5) z = 550
⇒ z = (550 × 5)/11 = 250

Gauri went to the stationers and bought things worth Rs 25, out of which 30 paise went on sales tax on taxable purchases. If the tax rate was 6%, then what was the cost of the tax-free items?
Detailed Solution for Olympiad Test: Percentage -1 - Question 13

Let the amount on taxable purchases be Rs x.
Then, 6% of x = 30/100
⇒ x = [(30/100) × (100/6)] = 5
∴ Cost of tax free items
= Rs [2 5 – (5 + 0.30)] = Rs 19.70

Rajeev buys goods worth Rs 6650. He gets a rebate of 6% on it. After getting the rebate, he pays sales tax @ 10%. Find the amount he will have to pay for the goods.
Detailed Solution for Olympiad Test: Percentage -1 - Question 14

Rebate = 6% of Rs 6650 = Rs 399.
Sales tax = 10% of Rs (6650 - 399)
= Rs 625.10
∴ Final amount = Rs (6251 + 625.10)
= Rs 6876.10

The population of a town increased from 1,75,000 to 2,62,500 in a decade. The average percent increase of population per year is:
Detailed Solution for Olympiad Test: Percentage -1 - Question 15

Increase in 10 years = (262500 – 175000) = 875 00
Increase% = [(87500/175000) × 100] % = 50%
∴ Required average = (50/10) % = 5%

Detailed Solution for Olympiad Test: Percentage -1 - Question 16

C.P. = Rs 3000
S.P. = Rs [(3600 × 100)/ 100 + (10 × 2)] 
= Rs 3000
Gain = 0%

The true discount on Rs 2562 due 4 months hence is Rs 122. The rate percent is:
Detailed Solution for Olympiad Test: Percentage -1 - Question 17

P.W. = Rs (2562 – 122) = Rs 2440
∴ S.I. on Rs 2440 for 4 months is Rs 122.
∴ Rate = [(100 × 122)/ (2440 × 1/3)] %
= 15%

Detailed Solution for Olympiad Test: Percentage -1 - Question 18

= Rs 9200

Detailed Solution for Olympiad Test: Percentage -1 - Question 19

P.W. of  Rs12,880 due 8 months hence
= Rs [(12880 × 100)/ (100 +18 × 8/12)]
= Rs (12880 × 100)/112 = Rs 11500

Detailed Solution for Olympiad Test: Percentage -1 - Question 20

S.I. on Rs (110 – 10) for a certain time = Rs 10
S.I. on Rs 100 for double the time = Rs 20
T.D. on Rs 120 = Rs (120 – 100) = Rs 20
T.D. on Rs 110 = Rs (20/120) × 110
= Rs 18.33
