Question 82

By selling 90 pens for Rs 80 a man loses 20%. What should be the selling price (in Rs) of 90 pens for 20% profit?

Solution

Selling price = Rs. 80

Loss % = 20%

=> Cost price = $$80\times\frac{100}{(100-20)}=Rs.$$ $$100$$

Profit % = 20%

$$\therefore$$ Selling price = $$100\times\frac{(100+20)}{100}=Rs.$$ $$120$$

=> Ans - (D)
