उत्तर

Let value of car be Rs x. 

`"V"_0` =Rs x ; n = 3 ; r = 10%  for first 2 years and 8% for 3rd year .

`therefore "V"_"t" = "V"_0 xx (1 - "r"/100)^"n"`

`=> "V"_"t" = "Rs"  "x"  xx (1 - 10/100)^2 (1 - 8/100)`

`=> "V"_"t" = "Rs"  "x"  xx 9/10 xx 9/10 xx 23/25`

`=> "V"_"t" = "Rs"  "x"  xx 1863/2500`

`=> "V"_"t" = "Rs"  0.7452  "x"`

Depreciation in the value of car

= Rs (x - 0.7452 x) = Rs 0.2548 x  

Percentage change in depreciation 

`= (0.2548  "x")/"x" xx 100`

= 25.48 %

Percentage change = 25.48 %
