Question : The price of sugar increases by 15%. By what percentage should the consumption of sugar be decreased so that the expenditure on the purchase of sugar remains the same? [Give your answer correct to 2 decimal places.]
Option 1: 11.11%
Option 2: 12.5%
Option 3: 14.16%
Option 4: 13.04%
Correct Answer: 13.04%
Solution : Given that the price of sugar is raised by 15% Price = $\frac{\text{Expenditure}}{\text{Consumption}}$ Let the original price be 100x New price after increase in price = $100\text{x}+ 100\text{x} \times \frac{15}{100}$ = 115x As expenditure remains same. Then, $\frac{\text{New consumption}}{\text{Original consumption}} = \frac{\text{Original Price}}{\text{New price}} =
Question : If the radius of a cylinder is decreased by 16 percent, then by how much percent its height must be increased so that the volume of the cylinder remains the same.
Option 1: 32.96 percent
Option 2: 41.72 percent
Option 3: 45.28 percent
Option 4: 36.43 percent
Correct Answer: 41.72 percent
Solution : Let the initial radius be r and height be 100 and the final height be h ⇒ Final radius = r$({1 - \frac{16}{100})}$ = 0.84r Initial volume = Final volume ⇒ $\pi r^{2}$ × 100 = $\pi (0.84r)^{2}$h ⇒ h = $\frac{100}{0.7056}$ = 141.72
