Question 12

If Rajan purchase 21 pens for Rs.20 and sell all the pens at the rate of 20 pens for Rs.21, then what will be the profit percentage?

Solution

Cost price of 21 pens = Rs. 20

=> Cost price of 420 pens = Rs. 400

Similarly, Selling price of 420 pens = Rs. 441

$$\therefore$$ Profit % = $$\frac{(441-400)}{400}\times100$$

= $$\frac{41}{4}=10.25\%$$

=> Ans - (C)
