PERCENTAGE CHAPTER MATHS TRICKS
Basically on previous article we provide the profit and loss and work and time tricks now, we are provide percentage chapter of maths that is very useful in all exams and 8-10 no. of question are asked from that chapter.
With the help of percentage tricks we can apply is to the various form like ratio, profit loss, time and distance, graphs, pie chart etc these are basically are the form of percentage and if you clear the basic concept it will be beneficial in many ways.
so, first what is percentage
DEFINITION
a percentage is a number or ratio expressed as a fraction of 100.
if we have to convert percentage into fraction than it is divide by 100.
a percentage is a number or ratio expressed as a fraction of 100.
if we have to convert percentage into fraction than it is divide by 100.
Example 1 :- if we write 45% then its equal to 45/100 or in fraction 9/20 or in decimal 0.45
if we have to convert fraction into percentage we have to multiple with 100.
Example 2 :- if we write 3/5 in fraction it is equal to 60%
3/5x100=60.
READ AND LEARN FOLLOWING TABLE as also known as conversion table of percentage. Learn this table it help you a lot to solve many problem.

by this conversion table we can change fraction into percentage and percentage into fraction
EX:- if we have to find 2/5 in %?
In the table we know that 1/5=20%
then, if we multiply both by 2
then we have 1/5x2 = 2x20%
answer is 2/5 = 40%
so, you only to know basic fraction and percentage that given above.
in the inverse
Ex. If we have to find out 1/15 fraction in percentage%?
then, if we multiply both by 2
then we have 1/5x2 = 2x20%
answer is 2/5 = 40%
so, you only to know basic fraction and percentage that given above.
in the inverse
Ex. If we have to find out 1/15 fraction in percentage%?
In the table we have 1/5 = 20%
then both side multiple by 1/3
we get 1/15 = 6.66%

ans. By trick ---- 50x50/100= 25% decrease/loss
TYPE 2.
if A is P% more than B. then B is less than by A
with P/(100+P)x100
if there is increase of X% and subsequently X% decrease then there is always loss / decrease in the condition.
ex. If rohan salary is increase by 50% and subsequently decrease by 50%. How much percentage loss?
ans. By trick ---- 50x50/100= 25% decrease/loss
TYPE 2.
if A is P% more than B. then B is less than by A
with P/(100+P)x100
ex. If radha earning is 25% more than sita. Then sita earning is how many percentage less then by radha?ans. By trick ---- 25/(100+25)x100=20%
TYPE 3.
If A is P% less than B. then B is more than by A
with P/(100-P)x100
with P/(100-P)x100
ex. If golu age is 20% less than gita than gita age is how many percentage more than golu?

Ex. If suman need 36% minimum mark to passed a exam but she score 24% mark and fail by 9 marks. What is the total mark?
ans. Difference in % = difference in mark
ans. Difference in % = difference in mark
In that 36%-24%=12%
that is 12%=9marks
so, total mark = 9/12x100= 75
that is 12%=9marks
so, total mark = 9/12x100= 75
