Answer 1

The first 10 questions have been answered, since questions to be answered are not specified.

1. If 180 is increased by 15%, Result = 180 + (15% * 180) = 180 * 27 = 207

2. Your farm harvested 20kilos of grapes yesterday. Today you harvested 90% more than yesterday.

Quantity of grapes did you harvest today = 20 + (90% * 20) = 20 + 18 = 38

3. No of coupons downloaded in the first 24 hours = 200

No of coupons downloaded by the end of first week = 200 + 16% * 200 = 200 + 32 = 232

Total No of coupons downloaded at the end of the first week = 200 + 232 = 432

4.Weight of flour last year = 550 kg

Weight of flour during this year = 550 + 12% * 550 = 550 + 66 = 616

5. No of units manufactured last month = 61,800

Target for this month = 61,800 + 90 % * 61,800 = 61,800 + 55,620 = 1,17,420

You must make 1,17,420 units this month to achieve your target.

6. If 10000 is increased by 31%, new amount = 10000 + (31% * 10000) = 10000 + 3100 = 13100

7. If 47400 is increased by 96%, new amount = 47400 + (96% * 47400) = 47400 + 45504 = 92,904

8. If 20 is decreased by 60%, Result = 20 - (60% * 20) = 20 - 12 = 8

9. No of customers at store yeaterday =  200.

Today you had 25% fewer customers.

No of customers at store today = 200 - (25% * 200) = 200 - 50 = 150

10.No of emails sent last month = 40

No. of emails sent this month = 40 - (40% * 40) = 40 - 16 = 24
