In the year $2000$ , rice formed $20 %$ of the total food gain production in a country. In the next year, the total food grain production increased by $20$ and the rice production was $25 %$ of the total food grain production. What is the increase in the production of rice from $2000$ to $2001$ ?

Solution

In $2000$ , Rice Production $= \frac{1}{5} K = 20$ % of $K = 0.2 K$
Where $K =$ Total Production in $2000$
Production Total in $2001 = K + 20$ % of $K = 1.2 K$
Production of Rice in $2001 = 1.2 K \times \frac{1}{4} = 0.3 K$
Percentage increment in Rice Production $\Rightarrow$
$= (\frac{0.3 K - 0.2 K}{K}) \times 100 = 10$ %
