d) 28.75%
Answers
1) Answer: A
According to the question,
Let the required number be x
12.5% of x = 12.5×1.25
or, 25x/2 = 25/2 × 25/20
or, x= 25/20= = 5/4
So, 200% of 5/4= 200/100× 5/4= 10/4= 2.5
Hence, the correct option is A.
3) Answer: A
As per the given data in question,
x% of y = z% of w
Or, x×y/100 = zw/100
Or, x×y = zw
Or, x= zw/y
Now,
75%×x = zw/y
Or, 3/4×x = zw/y
Or, x = 4zw/3y
Hence, the correct option is A.
4) Answer: A
According to the question,
X= 33.33% =100/3 %, and Y = 6.75% = 25/4 %
By using the % change method = (x – y – xy/100)
=( 100/3 - 25/4 - 100×25/1200)
= ( 100/3 - 25/4 - 25/12)
= (400 – 75 - 25/12)
= 300/12 = 25% (increase)
Hence, the correct option is A.
5) Answer: D
As we know that successive percentage of a and b = (a + b + ab/100)%
According to the given data in the question,
Here, a =6.66% = 100/15= 20/3 and b= 3.33%= 10/3
Now,
(20/3+ 10/3 + 20×10/900)% = (20/3 + 10/3 + 2/9) %
= 92/9%
Hence, the correct option is D.
6) Answer: A
As per given data in the question,
25% of (A + B) = 5/2(A – B)
Or,1/4×(A + B) = 5/2(A – B)
Or, A + B = 10(A – B)
Or, 11B = 9A
Or, A/B = 11/9
So, Required % = (11 – 9)×100/9% = 200/9%
Hence, the correct option is A.
7) Answer: B
According to the question,
Successive change in % for a and b
8) Answerer: C
According to the question,
25% of X is added to the 80% of X then the result becomes to 30% of 70,
25% of x + 80 % of x = 30 % of 70
Or,x/4 +4 x/5 = 30×300/100 = 21
Or,5x + 16x/20 = 21
21x = 21×20
So, x = 20
Now,
Value of 300% of 20 = 300×20/100 = 60.
Hence, the correct option is C.
9) Answer: D
According to the question,
(200 + 100)% of X = (100 – 75)%of Y
Or, 300% of X = 25% of Y
Or, 300X = 25Y
Or, 12X=Y
Hence, the correct option is D.
10) Answer: B

Now,
Yearly or 12 months income of Mohan = 144,000
So, monthly income = 144,000/12= 12000
Therefore, monthly savings, =12000×45% = 12000×9/20 = 5400
Hence, the correct option is B.
11) Answer: A
According to the question,
Required percentage =(x/(100-x))x100
=(37.5/(100 - 37.5))×100 = 60% more than X
Hence, the correct option is A.
12) Answer: C
As we know that if x % decreases with changes in the price of any commodities then x/(100 - x)
% increases with changes it's consumption then there was no effect on it.
So, Here x = 62.5%
Required increases in % = [62.5/(100 – 62.5)]x100
= (62.5 × 100/37.5) = 166.66%
Hence, the correct option is C.
14) Answer: A
As we know that successive % of - a and b is [-a + b –(a×b) /100)]
According to the question,

B gets 25% more marks than C
B= (100 + 25) = 125
A gets 20 % less marks than B
A= 125×(100 – 20)/100 = 125×80/100 = 100
And C gets 20 % less marks than D
D= 100×100/80 = 125
Now,
Ratio of marks of A: B: C: D = 100: 125: 100: 125 = 4: 5: 4: 5
A gets 420 marks out of 600;
A = 4k and A = 420; k = 420/4 = 70
Therefore, D = 5k = 5×70 = 350
