Comparing Quantities - Class 7 Formula Sheet

1. Ratios and Proportions


Ratio: A comparison of two numbers, written as a:b or a/b.

Proportion: When two ratios are equal, they form a proportion: a:b = c:d (or a/b = c/d).

Example: A class has 12 boys and 18 girls. Find the ratio of boys to girls.

12/18 = 2:3

Find x if 5:25 = 7:x.

x = (7 × 25) / 5 = 35

2. Percentages

Fraction to Percentage: Multiply by 100.

Decimal to Percentage: Multiply by 100.

Percentage to Fraction: Divide by 100.

Percentage to Decimal: Divide by 100.

Example: Convert 0.3 to a percentage:

0.3 × 100 = 30%

Convert 40% to a fraction: 40/100 = 2/5

3. Profit and Loss

Profit = Selling Price (SP) - Cost Price (CP)

Loss = Cost Price (CP) - Selling Price (SP)

Profit % = (Profit / CP) × 100

Loss % = (Loss / CP) × 100

Example: A book is bought for Rs. 200 and sold for Rs. 250. Find profit%.

Profit = 250 - 200 = Rs. 50

Profit% = (50 / 200) × 100 = 25%

4. Selling Price (SP) and Cost Price (CP) Calculations

SP when there is a Profit: SP = ((100 + Profit%) / 100) × CP

SP when there is a Loss: SP = ((100 - Loss%) / 100) × CP


CP when there is a Profit: CP = (100 / (100 + Profit%)) × SP

CP when there is a Loss: CP = (100 / (100 - Loss%)) × SP

Example: A cycle is bought for Rs. 500 and sold at 10% profit. Find SP.

SP = ((100 + 10) / 100) × 500 = 110/100 × 500 = Rs. 550

5. Simple Interest (SI)

Simple Interest Formula: SI = (P × R × T) / 100

Total Amount: A = P + SI

Principal (P): P = (SI × 100) / (R × T)

Rate (R): R = (SI × 100) / (P × T)

Time (T): T = (SI × 100) / (P × R)

Example: Find SI for Rs. 2000 at 5% per annum for 3 years.

SI = (2000 × 5 × 3) / 100 = Rs. 300

6. Percentage Increase or Decrease

Percentage Increase Formula: (Increase in Value / Original Value) × 100

Percentage Decrease Formula: (Decrease in Value / Original Value) × 100

Example: The price of a bag increased from Rs. 800 to Rs. 1000. Find percentage increase.

Increase = 1000 - 800 = 200

Percentage Increase = (200 / 800) × 100 = 25%

(b) A shirt was bought for Rs. 500 and sold at a 15% loss. Find the selling price.

3. Simple Interest

(a) Find the SI on Rs. 4000 at 6% per annum for 2 years.

(b) Find the principal if SI is Rs. 720, rate is 4%, and time is 3 years.
