Question 66

A dealer claims to sell his goods at cost price but uses a weight of 80 gm for 100 gm. What is the profit percentage for the dealer?

Solution

Let cost price of goods = Rs. 1/gm => Rs. 100/ 100gm

=> Selling price = Rs. 100/ 80gm => Rs. 1.25/gm

$$\therefore$$ Profit % = $$\frac{(1.25-1)}{1}\times100$$

= $$0.25\times100=25\%$$

=> Ans - (D)
