Let the price this year be 125p. Let the price last year be 100p
Last year’s price percentage of this year’s price = \(\frac{(100p}{125p)}\)% = 80%
Hence option B = 80% is the answer.
Last year’s price percentage of this year’s price = \(\frac{(100p}{125p)}\)% = 80%
Hence option B = 80% is the answer.

Solution
Given:
• The price of season tickets this year is 25% more than the last year’s price
To find:
• Last year’s season ticket price is what percentage of this year’s price
Approach and Working:
• Let us assume that last year season tickets’ price was x
- o Therefore, this year the price = 1.25x
Hence, the correct answer is option B.
Answer: B
Note:
This can also be solved if we assume last year’s price as 100.
Therefore, this year’s price = 125
Hence, last year’s price as a percentage of this year’s price = \(\frac{100}{125}\) * 100 = 80%
