The concept of successive percentage change deals with two or more percentage changes applied to quantity consecutively. In this case, the final change is not the simple addition of the two percentage changes (as the base changes after the first change).
Suppose a number N undergoes a percentage change of x % and then y%, the net change is:
Here, z is the effective percentage change when a number is changed successively by two percentage changes.
If value of an object/number P is successively changed by x%, y% and then z%, then final value.
Illustration 1: A’s salary is increased by 10% and then decreased by 10%. The change in salary is
Solution: As firstly salary increases, thus use positive sign and then salary decreases, so use negative sign
Percentage change formula when x is positive and y is negative is given by
Here, x = 10, y = 10
As negative sign shows a decrease, hence the final salary is decreased by 1%.
Illustration 2: A number is first increased by 10% and then it is further increased by 20%. The original number is increased altogether by?
Solution : Percentage change formula when both x and y are positive =
Here, x = 10 and y = 20 Hence net percentage change
As positive sign shows increase, Hence, The original number is increased altogether by 32 %.
If value of an object P is successively decreased by 10%, 20% and then 30%, then find final value if P = 10?. | |||
