Topic	Formula	Example
Simple Interest (SI)	SI = (P * R * T) / 100	SI for a principal of Rs. 5000 at 10% interest for 2 years = (5000 * 10 * 2) / 100 = Rs. 1000
Compound Interest (CI)	CI = P * [1 + R/100]n – P	CI for a principal of Rs. 10000 at 10% interest compounded annually for 2 years = 10000 * [1 + 10/100]^2 – 10000 = Rs. 2100
Percentage	A% of B = (A/100) * B	20% of 500 = (20/100) * 500 = 100
Profit & Loss	Profit = SP – CP	Profit earned by selling an article for Rs. 120 after buying it for Rs. 100 = 120 – 100 = Rs. 20
Time and Work	W1/T1 = W2/T2	If A can do a work in 10 days and B can do the same work in 15 days, then A and B together can do the work in (10 * 15) / (10 + 15) = 6 days
Ratio and Proportion	a/b = c/d	If a:b = 3:4 and b:c = 5:6, then a:b:c = 15:20:24
Average	Average = (Sum of terms) / (Number of terms)	Average of 10, 15, 20, 25 and 30 = (10 + 15 + 20 + 25 + 30) / 5 = 20
Speed, Time and Distance	Speed = Distance / Time	Speed of a train traveling 100 km in 2 hours = 100/2 = 50 km/hr
Mixture and Alligation	Rule of Alligation	To find the ratio of two liquids A and B to be mixed to get a mixture of desired concentration C: (C – B) / (A – C)
Area and Volume	Formulas for different shapes (e.g., triangle, rectangle, circle, sphere, cone)	Area of a rectangle with length 10 cm and breadth 5 cm = 10 * 5 = 50 sq cm

RRB Group D Percentage MCQ Questions

Formula	Description	Example
P% of A = (P/100) * A	Calculates the percentage P of a quantity A.	Find 20% of 500. P = 20, A = 500. <br>(20/100) * 500 = 100
Increase = [(P/100) * A] + A	Calculates the new value after a percentage increase.	The price of a book increases by 10%. Original price = ₹100, P = 10. <br>Increase = [(10/100) * 100] + 100 = ₹110
Decrease = A – [(P/100) * A]	Calculates the new value after a percentage decrease.	The cost of a laptop decreases by 15%. Original cost = ₹50000, P = 15. <br>Decrease = 50000 – [(15/100) * 50000] = 42500
(New value – Old value)/Old value * 100	Calculates the percentage change between two values.	The salary of an employee increases from ₹20000 to ₹22000. Find the percentage increase. <br>(22000 – 20000)/20000 * 100 = 10%
