Study Notes
Introduction to Mathematics
- The main topic of the text appears to be a general overview of mathematics, covering various concepts.
Ratio and Proportion
- A ratio a : b is given, where a = 2 and b = 5.
- To find the value of 3a + 2b, substitute the values: 3(2) + 2(5) = 16.
Percentages
- To find the percentage increase, first, find the difference: 100 - 80 = 20.
- Then, divide the difference by the original value and multiply by 100: (20 ÷ 80) × 100 = 25%.
Simple Interest
- The formula for finding simple interest is not explicitly mentioned in the text, but it is typically given as: Simple Interest (SI) = (Principal × Rate × Time) / 100.
