Q:

A towel, when bleached, was found to have lost 20% of its length and 10% of its breadth. The percentage of decrease in area is:

A) 10% B) 10.08%
C) 20% D) 28%

Answer:   D) 28%



Explanation:

Let original length = x and original breadth = y. 

 

Decrease in area = xy -[(80/100x) * (90/100y)]  

=[(xy-(18/25)xy)]

=(7/25)xy

Decrease % =[(7/25)xy * (1/xy) * 100] =28%
