Answers:
Q.1) Answer: c
Let us take CP be Rs.100
SP= 110 =80% of marked price
MP = 110/80*100=137.5
Required percentage = 37.5/100*100=37.5%
Q.2) Answer: d
Given,
2400*110/100+2400*(100-x)/100=4800
=>2400*(100-x)/100=4800-2640
Simplify the above equation, we get x=10%
Q.3) Answer: a
Let us take CP of an article be x
SP = 110/100 *x
CP= 80/100*x
SP=110/100 *x+50=200/100*80/100*x
5/10*x=50=>x=100
Q.4) Answer: e
Let us take CP of one at x and another at 5400-x
Given,
X*120/100+(5400-x)*75/100=5400
24x+(5400-x)*15=5400*20
=>9x=5400*5=>x=3000
Required difference= 3000-2400=600
Q.5) Answer: a
Let us take CP Rs.100
MP = 150
SP= 150*80/100=120
Profit = 120-100=20
Incase profit = 60
SP= 160
MP=160/80*100=200
Required percentage = 100/100*100=100%
Q.6) Answer: c
Let us take CP be Rs.100
Nandi’s selling price = 120*90/100=108
Profit %= 8/100*100=8%
Kavi’s SP = 125*88/100=110
Profit % =10%
Q.7) Answer: b
CP = 288/96*100=Rs.300
MP= 300+300*1/3=400
SP=400*(100-x)/100*(90-x)/100=288
Simplify the above equation, we get x=10%
Q.8) Answer: a
Over all CP=7200
Over all SP = 7200*105/100=7560
Given,
(7200-x)*(100+30)/100+x*(100-20)/100=7560
Simplify the above equation, we get x=3600
Required difference = 3600*130/100-3600*80/100=4680-2880=1800
Q.9) Answer: a
Given,
(2x*75/100)-(x*120/100) =2400
15x-12x=24000=>x=8000
Total CP = 3*8000=24000
Q.10) Answer: d
Given,
(x+10000)*80/100+(x+5000)*120/100=(2x+15000)-(2x+15000)*20/700
70x-68x=510000-490000=2x=20000=>x=10000
Required ratio = 20000:15000=4:3
