      Question

      The price of sugar is increased by 25%. By what

      percentage must a household reduce its consumption so as not to increase the expenditure on sugar?
      A 45% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 20% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 33% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 12% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ, Formula: Reduction % = [R / (100 + R)] × 100 Here R = 25. Reduction = [25 / (100 + 25)] × 100 = (25 / 125) × 100 = (1/5) × 100 = 20%
