By mistake = x/10 

Actual value = x * 10 

% Change = 10x-x1010x×100 = 99100×100  = 99% (negative)

Since actual value is greater than the wrong value.

Let the original price of rice be Rs. x

Let rice a man can buy for Rs. 500 at rs. x/kg be = R kgs

From given data, for Rs. 500

x ---- R kgs

(x + 25x/100) ---- (R - 5) kgs

=> Rx = (R - 5)(x + 25x/100)

=> Rx = (R - 5)(125x/100)

=> 100Rx = 125Rx - 625x

=> R = 25

So at rate of Rs. x/kg, man get 25 kgs for Rs. 500

=> x = 500/25 = Rs. 20

Passing marks are 0.6x 

so 0.3x + 30 = 0.6x   => x = 100

Given 2000 ---- 54 days

The provisions for 2000 men for 39 days can be completed by 'm' men for only 20 days.

i.e, 2000 ----- 39 days == m ---- 20 days

=> m x 20 = 2000 x 39

m = 3900

So total men for 20 days is 3900

=> 2000 old and 1900 new reinforcement.

Hence, reinforcement = 1900.

Let the side of the square plot be 'a' ft.
Given area of the plot (a x a) = 289 => a = 17
Length of the fence = Perimeter of the plot = 4a = 68 ft.
Cost of building the fence = 68 x 58 = Rs. 3944.

Let us say x boys and x girls joined the group.

(64 + x)/(40 + x) = 4/3

192 + 3x = 160 + 4x => x = 32

Number of members in the group = 64 + x + 40 + x

= 104 + 2x = 168.
