Answers & Solutions:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

1) Answer (A)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Let original price = $100x$<\/p>\n

After 1st discount of 20% =>$\\frac{20}{100} * 100x = 20x$<\/p>\n

Price = $100x-20x = 80x$<\/p>\n

After 2nd discount of 15% => $\\frac{15}{100} * 80x = 12x$<\/p>\n

Price will become = $80x-12x = 68x$<\/p>\n

=> Equivalent Discount % = $\\frac{100x-68x}{100x}$ * 100 = 32%<\/p>\n

2) Answer (B)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Let C.P. = $100x$<\/p>\n

Profit = $\\frac{20}{100} * 100x = 20x$<\/p>\n

=> S.P. = $100x+20x = 120x$<\/p>\n

Discount % = 20%<\/p>\n

Let M.P. = $y$<\/p>\n

=> $\\frac{y-120x}{y}$ * 100 = 20<\/p>\n

=> $4y = 600x$<\/p>\n

=> M.P. = $150x$<\/p>\n

When 30% discount is given => $\\frac{30}{100} * 150x = 45x$<\/p>\n

=> S.P. = $150x-45x = 105x$<\/p>\n

=> Profit % = $\\frac{105x-100x}{100x}$\u00a0* 100 = 5%<\/p>\n

3) Answer (C)<\/strong><\/p>\n

M.P. = 1500<\/p>\n

After first discount of 20% => $\\frac{20}{100}$ * 1500 = 300<\/p>\n

=> Price after first discount = 1500-300 = 1200<\/p>\n

After second discount of 10% => $\\frac{10}{100}$\u00a0* 1200 = 120<\/p>\n

=> Price after second discount = 1200-120 = 1080<\/p>\n

Thus, the dealer purchased it for 1080 and spends 20 more on it<\/p>\n

=> Total C.P. = 1080+20 = 1100<\/p>\n

Profit = $\\frac{20}{100}$ * 1100 = 220<\/p>\n

=> S.P. = 1100+220 = 1320<\/p>\n

4) Answer (D)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Let C.P. of 1 article = 1<\/p>\n

=> C.P. of 10 articles = 10*1 = 10<\/p>\n

which is equal to S.P. of 9<\/p>\n

=> S.P. of 1 item = $\\frac{10}{9}$<\/p>\n

=> profit % = $\\frac{\\frac{10}{9}-1}{1}$ * 100<\/p>\n

= $\\frac{100}{9}$\u00a0= 11$\\frac{1}{9}$%<\/p>\n

5) Answer (D)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Let us assume the price of the article to be Rs. 100. Let the number of articles sold be 100.
\nTotal sales = 100*100 = 10,000
\nNow, the price increases by 10% => New cost = Rs. 110
\nSales decrease by 20% => New sales = 80 units.
\nNow, new sales value = 80*110 = Rs. 8800
\n%age change =(10000 – 8800) \/ 10000 = 1200\/10000 = 12% decrease.
\nOption D is the right answer.<\/p>\n
