      The sum of two values, ‘m’ and ‘n’, is 400. When

      ‘m’ is decreased by 10% and ‘n’ is increased by 25%, both become equal. Find the value of ‘n’.
      A 300 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 286.25 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 167.44 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 255 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ,

      m + n = 400 ……(i)

      ATQ,

      0.90 × m = 1.25 × n

      Or, m = (1.25 / 0.90) × n

      So, m = (25n / 18)

      Put the value of ‘m’ in equation (i), we get,

      (25n/18) + n = 400

      Or, (43n/18) = 400

      Or, n = 400 × (18/43)

      So, n = 167.44
