 EXERCISE 7.2

Question 1

i) $15 %$ of $250=\frac{15}{100} \times 250=\frac{3}{20} \times 250=375$

ii) $25\% $ of 120 litres $=\frac{25}{100} \times 120=\frac{1}{4} \times 120=30$.

iii) $1 \%$ of 1 hour $=\frac{1}{100} \times 3600 \mathrm{sec}=36$ seconds.

iv) $75 \%$ of $\mathrm{Kg}=\frac{75}{100} \times 1000 \mathrm{~g}=\frac{3}{4} \times 1000 \mathrm{gr} \mathrm{ms}=750 \mathrm{~g}$

V) $120 \%$ of $\ 250=\frac{120}{100} \times 250$=Rs 300

vi) $0.6 \%$ of $2 \mathrm{Km}=\frac{0.6}{100} \times 2000 \mathrm{~m}=12 \mathrm{~m}$

Question 2

Given , 8% children of a class like getting wet = 25 

Now , children like getting wet=$\frac{8}{100} \times 25$

=$\frac{2}{25} \times 25$

=2

Question 3

Given, 

Out of 20 in the fridge, Vasundara ate = 3 ice creams 

Percentage of icecreams , she ate = $\frac{3}{20} \times 100 \%$

=15 %

Question 4

i) Required percentage $=\left(\frac{20}{50} \times 100\right) \%=\frac{200}{5} \%=40 \%$

ii) Required percentage $=\left(\frac{60}{40} \times 100\right) \%=\frac{300}{2} \%=150 \%$

iii) Required percentage $=\left(\frac{90cm}{4 \cdot 5 m} \times 100\right) \%=\left(\frac{90}{4.5 \times 100} \times 100\right) \%$

$=\left(\frac{90}{450} \times 100\right) \%$

$=\frac{100}{5} \%$

$=20 \%$

iv) $5.6 \mathrm{~kg}=5.6 \times 1000 \mathrm{~g}=5600 \mathrm{~g}$

$\begin{aligned} \text { Required Percentage }=\left(\frac{3509}{56008} \times 100\right) \% &=\frac{350}{56} \% \\ &=6.25 \% \end{aligned}$

Question 5

i) 12 of $80=\left(\frac{12}{80} \times 100\right) \%=\frac{120}{8} \%=15 \%$

ii) $\quad$ 4 rupees $=4 \times 100$ paide $=400$ paise

25 paise of 400 paise = $\left(\frac{25}{400} \times 100\right) \%=\frac{25}{4} \%=6.25 \%$

iii) $2 \mathrm{~kg}=2 \times 1000 \mathrm{~g}=2000 \mathrm{~g}$
$300 \mathrm{~g}$ of $200 \mathrm{~g}=\left(\frac{300}{2000} \times 100\right) \%=\frac{30}{2} \%=15 \%$

Question 6

Percentage increase $=\left(\frac{\text { intrease in value }}{\text { Original value }} \times 100\right) \%$

A school team won 4 games last years, and this year the team won 6 games. 

Increase in the games won = 6-4=2

ஃ percentage increase = $\begin{aligned} &( \left.\frac{2}{4} \times 100\right) \% \\ & \frac{100}{2} \\=& 50 \% \end{aligned}$

Question 7

Original price = Rs 80

Decrease in price = Rs 80 - Rs 60
 
= Rs 20

Percentage Decrease $=\left[\frac{D ecr e a s e \text { in value }}{\text { original value }} \times 100\right] \%$

$=\left[\frac{20}{80} \times 100\right] \%$

$=\frac{100}{4} \%$

$=25 \%$

Question 8

 In Childhood , petrol price was = Rs 1 per litre 

Now the price of petrol was = Rs 65 per litre

Increase in the Value of price = Rs 65 - Rs 1

= Rs 64

ஃ Percentage increase = $\left(\frac{64}{1} \times 100\right) \%$

$6400 \%$

Question 9

Last years, the cost of basmati rice= Rs 40 kg 

Also , percentage increase = 20 %

∴This price , this year will be increased by 

= $\frac{20}{100} \times 40$

=8 a $\mathrm{kg}$

∴ $\begin{aligned} \therefore \text { The price of Bamati rice, tis year } &=40+8 \\ &= ₹ 48 \text { kg. } \end{aligned}$

Question 10

Number of students took exam = 300

Percentage failed = 28%

Number of students failed $=\frac{28}{100} \times 300$

=84 

∴ Now , the number of students passed= 300- 84

=216

Question 11

In a constituency, number of voters = 15,000

Percentage of voters who voted = 60% 

∴ Number of votes who voted = $\frac{60}{100} \times 15000$

=9000

Question 12

Length of a flag pole painted green = 20%

Painted yellow = 455

Remaining painted red = 100-(20+ 45)

=100-65

= 35%

Total length of pole = 18m

Length of pole painted red =$\frac{35}{100} \times 18m$

=6.3m

Question 13

A chalk contains , calcium = 10% 

Carbon = 3% 

Oxygen = 12%

and the remaining is sand = 100- (10+3+12)

= 100-25

= 75%

Amount of carbon in $2 \frac{1}{2}$ kg chalk $=\frac{3}{100} \times \frac{5}{2} \times 1000 \mathrm{~g}$ = 75g

Amount of Calcium in $2 \frac{1}{2} \mathrm{~kg} \ chalk \mathrm{}=\frac{10}{100} \times \frac{5}{2} \times 1000 \mathrm{~g}$ = 250g

$\begin{aligned} \text { Amount of } \text { Sand } &=\frac{75}{100} \times \frac{5}{2} \mathrm{~kg} \\ &=1.875 \mathrm{~kg} \end{aligned}$


Question 14

i) $25 \%$ of $x$ is $9 \Rightarrow \frac{25}{100} \times x=9$

$\frac{x}{4}=9$

$x=4 \times 9$

$x=36$

ii) $75 \%$ of $x$ is $15 \Rightarrow \frac{75}{100} \times x=15$

$\frac{3 x}{4}=15$

$x=\frac{15 \times 4}{3}$

$x=20$

iii) $12 \%$ of it is Rs 1080

$\begin{aligned} \Rightarrow \frac{12}{100} \times x &=1080 \\ x &=\frac{1080 \times 100}{12} \\ x &=9000 . \end{aligned}$

iv) $8 \%$ of it is 40 litr $\Rightarrow \frac{8}{100} \times x=40$

$x=\frac{40 \times 100}{8}$

$x=500$

Question 15

Mohini Saved salary =Rs 400

percentage Saved $=10 \%$ of total salary

i.e $\frac{10}{100} \times x=400$

$x=\frac{400 \times 100}{10}$

$x=4000$

$\therefore$ Salary =Rs 4000

Question 16

Number of good apples in basket = 42

percentage of the apples in a basket go bad = 16%

Remaining , percentage of apples go good = 100- 16= 84%

Let Total no of apples be x

i.e 84% of x = 42

 $\frac{84}{100} \times x=42$

$x=\frac{42 \times 100}{84}$

$x=50$

∴ Total number of apples = 50

Question 17

Varun got secured marks = 251 marks 

and got failed by 19 marks 

If he gets passed, then he will get = 251+19= 270 marks

percentage of marks to get pass = 45%

Let maximum marks be 'x'

i.e 45% of x = 270

$\begin{aligned} \frac{45}{100} \times x &=270 \\ x &=\frac{270 \times 100}{45} \\ x &=600 \end{aligned}$

∴ Maximum marks $=600$

Question 18

In a rainy day , percentage of students 

present in a school = 94% 

Then percentage of students absent = 100- 94% 

= 6%

Also given , number of students absent on that 

day = 174 

Let total strength of school be x 

i,e 
$\begin{aligned} 6 \% \text { of } x &=134 . \\ \frac{6}{100} \times x &=174 \\ x &=\frac{174 \times 100}{6} \\ x &=2900 . \end{aligned}$

Total strength of school = 2900

Question 19

Percentage of population in a town are men = 40%

Those are women = 39%

Then percentage of population are children = 100-(39+40)

= 100-79

 Number of children - 12,600

Let the total population be 'x '

i.e 21% of x = 12,600

$\begin{aligned} \frac{21}{100} \times x &=12,600 \\ x &=\frac{12,600 \times 100}{21} \\ x&=60,000 \end{aligned}$

∴ Now the number of men = 40% of total 

$=\frac{40}{100} \times 60,000$

$=24,000$

Question 20

Price of watch is increased by 15% 

Increase in price is Rs 90

percentage increase = $\frac{\text { Increase in value }}{\text { original value }} \times 100$

∴ i.e $15=\frac{90}{\text { original value }} \times 100$

$\begin{aligned} \therefore \text { original price } &=\frac{90 \times 100}{15} \\ \text { original price } &=2600 \end{aligned}$


Question 21

i)Let the original number be x 

Increase in the number = 30% of x $=\frac{30}{100} \times x=\frac{3 x}{10}$

$\therefore$ New number $=x+\frac{3 x}{10}$

According to given Condition, $x+\frac{3 x}{10}=39$

$\begin{aligned} 10 x+3 x=39 \times 10 \Rightarrow 13 x &=390 \\ x &=\frac{390}{13}=30 \end{aligned}$

Hence , the original number is 30


ii) Let the original number be x 

Decrease in number = 8% of x = $\frac{8}{100} \times x=\frac{2 x}{25}$

∴New number = $x-\frac{2 x}{25}$

Accoding to given information, $x-\frac{2 x}{25}=506$.

$25 x-2 x=506 \times 25$

$23 x=506 \times 25$

$x=\frac{506 \times 25}{23}$

$x=550$

Hence, the original number is 550

Question 22

Percentage reduced = 7%

Let the original number be x 

Decreased in number = 7% of x =$\frac{7}{100} \times x=\frac{7 x}{100}$

∴ New number = $x-\frac{7 x}{100}=\frac{93 x}{100}$.

According to given , $\frac{93 x}{100}=165$

$x=\frac{465 \times 100}{93}$

$x=500$

∴ Original price = Rs 500
