      percentage of the stock of rice should be sold so that the stock again becomes as much as it was in the beginning?
      A 20% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      D 15% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      According to the question, let the rice be 100 kg. On increasing by 25% the quantity of rice becomes 125 kg, hence, to keep the rice at the same quantity as before, 25 kg of rice must be sold, hence the percentage sold, = (25 /125) ×100=20%
