Sol: Ratio of tin to copper in alloy = 3:5 
Total alloy = 3+5 = 8

% of tin in alloy =$\frac{3}{8} \times 100=37.5 \%$
%  of copper in alloy = $\frac{5}{8} \times 100=62.5 \%$

Question 9

The price of a muffin increase from Rs 4 to Rs 5 what is the percentage increase ? 

Sol: Increase in price = 5-4 = Rs 1 
% Increase = $\frac{\text { increase }}{\text { original }} \times 100=\frac{1}{4} \times 100=25 \%$

Question 10

The number of people employed in firm decreased from 240 to 210 . find the percentage decrease 

Sol: Decrease = 240 - 210 = 30

The speed of a train is 80 km\hr . If is 
(i) Increased to 130 km\hr . Find % increase 

Sol: Increase = $130-80=50 \mathrm{~km} / \mathrm{hr}$
% Increase = $\frac{50}{80} \times 100=62.5 \%$

(ii) Decreased to 65 km\hr . find % decrease .
Sol: Decreased = 80-65 = 15 
% Decreased = $\frac{15}{30} \times 100=18.75 \%$

Question 12

A four meter elastic band is increased by 10% find its new length . 

Sol: Increase = 10% of 4  =$\frac{10}{100} \times 4=0.4 \mathrm{~m}$

New length = Original + Increase 
= $4+0.4=4.4 \mathrm{~m}$

Question 13

The length of a rope is decreased by $12 \frac{1}{2} \%$ what is the length if it was 150 m ? 

Sol: Decrease = 12.5% of 150 = $\frac{125}{100} \times \frac{150}{10}$
$=\frac{75}{4}=18.75$
New length = 150  -18.75 = 131.25 

Question 14

The monthly expenditure of a family on milk is Rs 700. If the price of the milk is increased by 8% . Find the increase in the expenditure of the family on milk .

Sol: Old expenditure = 700

Question 15

The population of an India state is 8 crore. If it increase by 2% Every year, find the population of the state after one year . 

Sol: Population = 8 crore

Remaining gives to his brother = 100-80= 20% 

Acc to question 20%= 9000
Then 1% = $\frac{9000}{20}$
$\therefore \quad 100 \%=\frac{9000}{20} \times 100=45,000$

Mother's share = 25% of 45000
$=\frac{25}{100} \times 45000$
= Rs 11250 Answer 

Daughter share = 55% of 45000
