PERCENTAGES PROFIT, LOSS & DISCOUNTS

𝑉𝑎𝑙𝑢𝑒
Percentage = × 100
𝐵𝑎𝑠𝑒 % %
% CP MP SP
Value = × 𝐵𝑎𝑠𝑒
100 Mark-up Discount
Base identification
• After the word ‘of’
% or %
• After “more than” or “less than”
• Initial Value for a % change
Profit or Loss
Using Multipliers for % changes
• For A% increase, multiplier = (100 + A)% Profit, Loss, Mark-up & Discounts are %
• For A% decrease, multiplier = (100 – A)% change in prices
• Final value = Initial Value x Multiplier • Use multipliers (Final = Initial x multiplier)
• Eg: for 20% decrease • MP = CP x mmark-up
• Final value = 80% of Initial Value • SP = MP x mdiscount
Cumulating successive % changes • SP = CP x mprofit / loss
• Net multiplier = Product of all multipliers
• mmark-up x mdiscount = mprofit or loss
• Overall % change = Distance from 100%
• Eg: If net multiplier = 0.826 = 82.6% 𝑚𝑑
• p = m − d − 100
• Overall % change = 17.4%
• For 2 successive changes of A% & B%:
• Overall % change = A + B + AB/100

𝑅 𝑇 For terms in AP,
(Equal every year) CI = 𝑃 1 + 100 −𝑃
Average = Median = Avg of 1st & last terms
Non Annual Compounding n

CI – SI = R% of 1st year Interest = R% of R% of P When initial values & Weighted avg is
known or given in question.
RATIO & PROPORTION

• Let A = 2x, B = 4x and C = 5x
i.e. Quantities are multiples of respective terms AW

Parts of a whole
(AW – A2) : (A1 – AW) = W1 : W2
• If A, B and C are in ratio 2 : 3 : 5
• Then, A = 2/10th of Total
Partnerships
• Ratio of Profits = Ratio of (Capital x Time)
MIXTURES
Typical Mixture problem: Removal & Replacement Problem

Mixture-1 + Mixture-2 → Mixture-3 From solution of A and B, q litres is removed &


replaced with equal volume of substance B.
1. Determine constituents in M-1, M-2 and M-3
(some will be constants & others variables) The, Final Volume of substance A
= Initial Volume of A x (fraction remaining)n
2. For each substance (constituent):
𝑉𝑜𝑙𝑢𝑚𝑒 𝑟𝑒𝑚𝑜𝑣𝑒𝑑
M-1 + M-2 = M-3 Fraction remaining = 1 −
𝐼𝑛𝑖𝑡𝑖𝑎𝑙 𝑆𝑜𝑙𝑢𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛 𝑉𝑜𝑙

3. Use ratio / Concentration to make equations Note:


& solve. 1. By doing R&R, substance A must reduce in
volume
𝑀𝑖𝑙𝑘 𝑉𝑜𝑙
Concentration of Milk = 𝑆𝑜𝑙𝑢𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛 𝑉𝑜𝑙 × 100 2. Volume removed = Volume replaced

Alternate approach
• Apply Rule of Alligation on Concentration of
any substance in M-1, M-2 and M-3
TIME, SPEED & DISTANCE Trains & Crossing
Distance = Speed x Time • Crossing Distance DC = L1 + L2 = SR x T
Km = km/hr x hours • L1 = Length of train

m = m/s x sec • L2 = Length of object being crossed


• For people or pole, Length = 0
1 km/hr = 5/18 m/s
Boats & Streams
Before – After • Effective Speed depends on direction of motion
• 2 variables unchanged, 3rd changes • Sdownstr = B + S • Supstr = B – S
• Find 3rd variable in terms of other two in
• Apply D = S x T separately in both directions!
both “initial” and “final” situations
• Eg: D = S1T1 = S2T2 or T = D1/S1 = D2/S2
Circular Motion
Relative Speed Two Runners running laps around circular track
• Apply when 2 objects are in motion • For Time of first meeting on track
• Relative speed SR =
• (A – B) if both move in same direction • Distance = Circumference
• (A + B) if both move in opp directions • Apply D = SR x T to find T
• Change in Separation D = SR x T
• If there are 3 runners, calculate Time for two
Race Problems pairs and then find their LCM
• For Margin of victory in a race
• All people run for the ‘same’ time!
• So T = D1/S1 = D2/S2 or D1 : D2 = S1 : S2
