Due to reduction of 20% in the price of rice, a man is able to buy 5 kg. more for Rs. 500. Find the original and reduced rate of sugar.

Rs. 25

Rs. 30

Rs. 35

Rs. 55

Explanation:

500 x 80 /100 = 400 Rs.
Now we can buy same quantity of rice in 400 Rs.
It means we can now buy 5 kg. Rice in (500-400) = 100 Rs.
Reduced price = 100/5 =20 Rs.
Because the reduced price is 80%, then
Original price = 20/80×100 = 25 Rs.
