Weight of an grapefruit=weight of an orange+8% weight of an orange
weight of an apple=weight of an orange -10% weight of an orange
a.<span>By what percentage is the grapefruit heavier than the apple?
We should find the connection between grapefruit and an apple. We know the connection between the weight of a grapefruit and an orange, we know the connection between an orange and an apple, so this means we know the connection between a grapefruit and an apple.
</span>
weight of an grapefruit=weight of an <span>orange+8% weight of an orange
</span>weight of an orange=weight of an apple<span> +10% weight of an apple
</span>
-> weight of an grapefruit=weight of an apple+10% weight of an apple + 8%(weight of an apple+10% weight of an apple)= weight of an apple + 18% weight of an apple + 2% weight of an apple= <span>weight of an apple + 20% weight of an apple
</span><span>b.By what percentage is the apple lighter than the grapefruit?
</span>weight of an grapefruit=weight of an apple + 20% weight of an apple<span>
</span>
-> The apple ts 20% lighter than the grapefruit.
The percentage change in G is 21 %
<h3>What is Percentage change ?</h3>
Percentage change is defined as the increase or decrease in the value as compared to the original value multiplied by 100.
It is given that
G = ab
when a is increased by 10% the new a will be = 1.1 a
When b is increased by 10% the new b will be 1.1 b
So,
G' = 1.1a *1.1 b
G' = 1.21 ab
G' = 1.21
(G' - G)*100/G = (1.21-1)*100/1
The percentage change is 21 %
