Correct Answer: ? 2960
Explanation:
We know that
Loss = CP - SP
240 = 3200 - SP
? SP = 3200 - 240 = ? 2960
Correct Answer: 20%
Explanation:
Since, CP of 2 lemon is ? 1
? CP of 1 lemon is = 1/2 = ? 0.5
SP of 5 lemon is ? 3.
? SP of 1 lemon is = 3/5 = ? 0.6
? Gain percent = [(0.6 - 0.5)/0.5] x 100
= (0.1/0.5) x 100 = 20%
Correct Answer: 12
Explanation:
Here, a = 23, b = 20
? Required percentage profit = [(a - b)/b] x 100 %
= [(23 - 20)/20] x 100% = 15%
Correct Answer: 25%
Explanation:
Let number of apples bought = 5 x 6 = 30 [LCM of 5 and 6]
CP = (10/5) x 30 = ? 60
SP = (15/6) x 30 = ? 75
? Gain = SP - CP = 75 - 60 = ? 15
? Gain % = (15/60) x 100 % = 25%
Correct Answer: 8712
Explanation:
Price after 10% discount = 10000 - 10 % of 10000 = 10000 - 0.1 x 10000 = 9000
Price after another 20% discount = 9000 - 20 % of 9000 = 7200
Price after 10% of transportation charges = 7200 + 7200 x 0.1 = 7920
Price after 10% of profit = 7920 + 7920 x 0.1 = 8712
? Selling price = 8712
Correct Answer: 50 %
Explanation:
Let the cost price of one gram be Rs. 1, then the mark up price be Rs. 1.2 per g.
Now he sells 1000 g which seems to be 1250 g so he charges to a customer 1250 X 1.2 = Rs. 1500 for 1000 g (or Rs. 1000)
Thus his profit % 1500 -1000 / 1000 X 100 = 50 %
Correct Answer: 22 2/9%
Explanation:
Amount purchased = 1100 g
Amount sold = 900 g
Profit % = (200 / 900) X 100
= 22 2/9%
Correct Answer: Rs. 10 per kg
Explanation:
Reduction in price = 20% ( 1 / 5 )
Increase in amount = 25 % (1 / 4) = 6 kg
It means original amount of sugar needed = 6 X 4 =24 kg
? Original price of the sugar = 240 / 24
= Rs. 10 per kg
Correct Answer: Rs. 7.92 lakh
Explanation:
Assume market price (MP) = Rs. 100
After 20% discount price = 100 - 20% = Rs. 80
After cash discount of 10% price = 80 - 10% = Rs. 72
Price after 10% spend on interior decoration = 72 + 10% = Rs. 79.2
So the cost price (CP) = Rs. 79.2
Selling price after 25 % profit = CP + 25%
= 79.2 + 25% of 79.2
= 1.25 x 79.2
= 99
When initial market price is 100 rupees the selling price is 99.
So for initial market price 8 Lakh the selling price = 8000000 x ( 99 / 100 )
= 7,92,000
Correct Answer: 420
Explanation:
Initially :
CP = 100
Profit = x
SP = 100 + x
MP = 133.33
After change
CP = 100
Profit = 2x
SP = [7(100 + x)]/6
Now , since (100 + x) 7/6 - 100 = 2x
? x = 20%
CP = 100
Profit = 20
SP = 120
MP = 133.33
so when CP = 300
Selling price = 300 + 20% = 360.
After change
So when CP = 300
Selling price = 300 + 2 x 20% of 300 = 420
So the increased selling price = Rs. 420
