Indian Economy - Understanding the basics of Indian economic system

Find the number which when decreased by 12 % becomes 198.

180

185

225

250

Let the number be m.

Decrease = 12 % of m

= 12/100 × m = 3m /25

Therefore, decrease number = m – 3m/25 = (25m – 3m)/25 = 22m/25

According to the question 22m/25 = 198

22m = 198 × 25

m = 4950/22

m = 225

Hence, option 3 is the correct answer.
