Just learn these conversion of percentage into fraction, and youll be all set to learn quick and easy way to solve the questions based on percentage.
Example questions
1} 87.5% of 560
87.5% = 100% - 12.5%
=1-(1/8)= 7/8
=1-(1/8)= 7/8
So (7/8)*560=490
2} 55.55 % of 1260
55.55% = 5 x 11.11% =5/9
(5/9)*1260 =700
Similarly you can convert the percentage into fraction and then solve it.
3} 43.75%=50%-6.25%=(1/2)-(1/16)
4} 56.25%= 50% + 6.25%=(1/2)+(1/16)
5} 91.66% =75%+ 16.66=(3/4)+(1/6)
6} 25.26% =20% + 5.26%=(1/5)+(1/19)
7} 81.25% = 75% + 6.25%=(3/4)+(1/16)
8} 206.25% = 200%+6.25%=2+(1/16)
9} 91.66% = 75%+6.66%=(3/4)+(1/15)
10}63.63%= 7 x 9.09%=7/11
