(ii) Required percentage = `(84/7 xx 100)`% = 1200%.
(iii) Required percentage = `(8/(2.4 xx 1000) xx 100)`% = `1/3`%.

+ ExplanationNot ModeratedTWO IMPORTANT RULES (Short Cut Methods) :
(i) If A is R% more than B, then :
B is less than A by`{R/(100 + R) xx 100}`%.
(ii) If A is R% less than B, then
B is more than A by `{R/(100 - R) xx 100}`%
