Quants Hacks | Percentage to Fraction Value

Dear Students,

संख्यात्मक अभियोग्यता एक कठिन खंड है. कई बैंक परीक्षाओं में दो स्तरीय परीक्षा होती है अर्थात प्राथमिक और मुख्य. उनमें से कई ने अपना परीक्षा प्रारूप बदल दिया है और प्रत्येक खंड के लिए 20 मिनट का अनुभाग समय दिया है. संख्यात्मक अभियोग्यता प्रत्येक परीक्षा के लिए महत्वपूर्ण है खंड है और इसके लिए प्रत्येक उम्मीदवार के पास एक बेहतर रणनीति होना आवश्यक है क्योंकि यह वह खंड है जो आपको पूरे अंक दिला सकता है. आप भले ही भाषा के खंड में प्रश्नों के उत्तर देते समय अटक सकते हैं लेकिन यह खंड आपको पूरे अंक दिलाने में सहायक हो सकता है.

तो इस खंड में आपकी सहायता करने के लिए Adda247 आपके लिए लेकर आया है संख्यात्मक अभियोग्यता के लिए कुछ ट्रिक्स जो परीक्षा के दौरान आपका समय बचा सकती हैं.

Multiplication technique-

Percentage to Fraction value and vice versa plays an important role in Simplification. It makes the calculation easier in the exam. So go through these values and try to understand the logic.

Example1-
75% of 4016
is very easy when we know the fraction value of 75%
Fraction value of 75% is 75/100 i.e. 3/4
3/4*4016=3*1004=3012
Example2-
95% of 25⁵⁄₁₉
if you don’t know fraction value 25⁵⁄₁₉ then it this takes time to solve
break 25⁵⁄₁₉ into (20+ 5⁵⁄₁₉)%
20%=1/5, and 5⁵⁄₁₉ = 1/19
(1/5+1/19)*95=24

A fraction is proper and Improper.

Proper fraction where the numerator is less than the denominator.
Example- 3/4, 17/19.

Improper fraction where the numerator is more than the denominator. We have to make numerator always less than the denominator.
Example- 17/12, 12/7
Note- Always make numerator less than the denominator.
we write 17/12= 1 5/12

Recurring Decimals– recurring decimal is produced by all the denominator which is not divisible by 2 or 5.

In competitive exam percentage to fraction value, up to 20 is asked.
(A) 1/2= 50/100= 50%,
3/2= 3*50%=150%,
5/2= 5*50%=250%

(B) 1/3= 1/3*100=33.33%( Recurring decimal)
2/3= 2*33.33%=66.66%,
4/3= 4* 33.33 but this is not easy we can write it as (1+1/3)*100=100%+33.33=133.33

(C) 1/4= 25%
3/4=3*25%=75%,
5/4 is improper fraction, split it into= (1+1/4)*100=100%+25%=125%
6/4= 3/2*100=150% or if you know table of 25 then directly 6*25=150
7/4= split it (1+3/4)*100=175% or 25*7=175

(D) 1/5= 20%,
2/5=40%,
3/5=60%,
4/5=80%,
6/5= 120%

(E) 1/6=16.66% or 16²⁄₃
2/6=1/3=33.33%,
5/6=5*16.66=83.33% or we can break it into (1-1/6)*100=100%-16²⁄₃=83¹⁄₃
7/6=(1+1/6)=116.66%

Note- 100-16²⁄₃= subtract 17 from the 100 and then subtract 3-2.
all the subtraction in fractions happens as above

(F) 1/7=14.28% or 14²⁄₇,
2/7=28.56 %
3/7= we multiply 3*14 2/7= 3*(14+2/7)%= 42%+6/7%=42.85
4/7=4*(14²⁄₇)=56+8/7=57 1/7
6/7= 1-1/7=100-14²⁄₇=85⁵⁄₇

(G) 1/8= 12.5%,
3/8=37.5%,
5/8= 62.5%,
7/8=(1-1/8)=100%-12.5=87.5%
9/8=(1+1/8)*100=112.5%

(H). 1/9= 11.11%,
2/9=22.22,
4/9= 44.44%,
5/9=55.55%,
6/9=66.66%
[ Note the trend]- same value before and after decimal

(I). 1/10=10%

(J). 1/11=9.09%,
2/11= 18.18%, 3/11=27.27%, 4/11= 36.36 [ Note the trend]- same value before and after decimal

K. 1/12=8.33%, 5/12= 41.66 [ Recurring]

L. 1/13= 7⁹⁄_13%

M. 1/14=7²⁄₁₄, 3/14=21.42%

N. 1/15=6¹⁰⁄₁₅=6²⁄₃=6.66 or divide and multiply by 2 in numerator and denominator=2/30, 4/15=8/30

Note- if denominator has 5 in its unit place make it 10.

O. 1/16=6⁴⁄₁₆=6.25, 3/16=18.75, 5/16= 5*(6.25)=31.25

P. 1/17=5¹⁵⁄₁₇

Q. 1/18=5⁵⁄₉

R. 1/19=5⁵⁄₁₉

S. 1/20= 5%

Now convert a percentage to fraction value-

1. 106²⁄₃= 100%+6²⁄₃
fractional value of 100%=1, and 6²⁄₃%=1/15= 16/15
2. 157¹⁄₇= 100%+ 57¹⁄₇
fractional value of 57¹⁄₇= 4/14= 1+4/14=18/14=9/7
3. 616²⁄₃= 600%+ 16 2/3
600%=6, 16²⁄₃= 1/6= 6+1/6=37/6.

Some Solved Examples-

1. 4%*275=
we write 4% as 4/100=1/25
1/25*275=11

2. 56.25% of 1120=
we write 56.25% as (50%+6.25%)
Fractional value of 50%=1/2 and 6.25%=1/16
Now (50%+6.25%) of 1120=560+1/16*1120=560+70=630

3. 95% of 25 5/19=

Note- a% of b is same as b% of a

we write it as 25⁵⁄₁₉% of 95=
We can write- 25⁵⁄₁₉%= 20%+5⁵⁄₁₉%
the fractional value of 20%=1/5 and 5⁵⁄₁₉=1/19
(1/5+1/19)*95
=19+5=24

4. 81.25% of 128=
81.25= (75%+6.25%)*128=13/16*128=13*8=104

5.206 ¼%*14.4=
we can split this fraction as
(200%+ 6 ¼%)*14.4=28.8+0.9=29.7

6. 91 2/3*1320=
Case 1-we can write (91²⁄₃) as (75%+16 2/3%)
Fractional value of 75=3/4, and 16²⁄₃=1/6
3/4*1320+1/6*1320=990+220=1210
Case2- we can also write as (100%-8¹⁄₃%)=1-1/12=11/12*1320= 1210.

7. 242⁶⁄₇of 714=
we can write 242 6/7 as (200%+42 6/7%)*714=
fractional value of 42⁶⁄₇ is 3/7
the denominator has 1/7 i.e. it is somewhere multiple of 14²⁄₇
=1428+3/7*714=1428+306=1734

8. 12.32% of 1555=
write (1555)%= 1000%+500%+50%+5%
1555% of 32=(1000%+500%+50%+5%) of 32=320+160+16+1.6=497.6
