Question

niti wanted to buy gifts for her son's birthday party . she had enough money to buy 24 toys costing 250 rupees each. if the price of the toys has increased by 20 percent , how many toys can she buy now

Answer 1

1 toy costs 250 rupee
24 toys cost 250 × 24 rupees
24 × 250 = 6000 rupees
if the price increases by 20percent
(20/100)× 250 = 50 rupees
the price increased by 50 rupees
50 + 250= 300 rupees
each toy now costs 300 rupees
to find how many toys she can buy
6000/300 ( the new price)
= 20
she can buy 20 toys
