In the year 2001, the price of article A is `20%` more than the price of article B. In the year 2002, the price of article A is `50%` more than the price of article B. From 2001 to 2002, if the price of A has increased by `50%` by what per cent has the price of B increased?

Answer» Correct Answer - C
(i) Let the price of A and B in 2001 be Rs. 120x and Rs. 100y. The price of A in the same year will be Rs. 120x and Rs. 120y.
(iii) Given that `(150y-120x)/(120x)=50/100` using this, find the ratio of y and x.
(iv) Find `(y-x)/(x)xx100`
