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

1)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(A)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Cost price = 300 Rs.
\nMarked Price = 450 Rs.
\nDiscount = 20%
\nSelling price = 450 – 450*($\\frac{20}{100}$) = 360 Rs.
\n%profit = $\\frac{(360-300)}{300} \\times 100 = 20\\%$<\/p>\n

2)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(D)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Let the cost price of the article be P.
\n80% of P = 320 => (80\/100)*P = 320 => P = 320*100\/80 = 400
\nSo, cost price of the article = Rs 400
\nProfit = 30% of 400 = Rs 120
\nSo, selling price of the article should be Rs 400 + Rs 120 = Rs 520<\/p>\n

3)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(C)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Let the number of items be 100 and the cost price of each item be Re 1. So, total cost price = Rs 100
\nCP of 4\/5th of the items = Rs 80
\nSP of these items = 136\/100 * 80 = 108.8
\nSP of remaining 20 items = (9\/10) * 20 = Rs 18
\nSo, total selling price of all the items = Rs 108.8 + Rs 18 = Rs 126.8
\nProfit percentage = (126.8 – 100)\/100 * 100% = 26.8%<\/p>\n

4)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(A)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Let the cost price be Rs 100.
\n30% increment in the price => 1.3 * 100 = Rs 130
\nNow, 30% decrement in the price = 130 * 0.7 = Rs 91
\nHence, the price of the article is Rs 91.
\nLoss = 100 – 91 = Rs 9
\nLoss % = $\\frac{9}{100}*100$ = 9%<\/p>\n

5)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(C)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Initial Sold Price = Rs. 220
\nLoss = 20%
\nCost price of the article = $\\frac{220}{0.8} = 275$ Rs.
\nGain = 20%
\nHence, new sold price = $275 \\times 1.20 = 330$<\/p>\n

6)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(A)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Let the initial investment be 16x. Hence, he puts 8x in A, 4x in B, 2x in C and 2x in D. Hence, overall profit\/ loss % = (8x*5%+4x*-8%+2x*0+2x * 20%)\/ 16x = (40x-32x+40x)\/1600x = 48x\/1600x = 3% profit.<\/p>\n

7)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(A)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Let the cost price of the 2 cars be x and y.<\/p>\n

The selling price of the cars = 1.1 x and .9y<\/p>\n

but 1.1 x = .9 y<\/p>\n

So, x = 9y\/11 = .82 y<\/p>\n

Total profit (or loss)= (1.1x + .9y – x – y)\/(x+y) = (x\/10 – y\/10)\/(x+ y) = (.82y\/10 – y\/10) \/ ( 1.82y) = 1% loss<\/p>\n

8)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(A)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Let the Selling Price (SP) of TV be x => SP of AC = 2x
\nProfit on TV = 30% => CP of TV = $\\frac{x}{1.3}$
\nLoss on AC = 20% => CP of TV = $\\frac{2x}{0.8}$ = 2.5x
\nTotal CP = $\\frac{x}{1.3}$ + 2.5x = 3.27x
\nTotal SP = 3x
\nLoss = 3.27x – 3x = 0.27x
\nLoss% = $\\frac{0.27x}{3.27x}*100$ = 8.25%<\/p>\n

9)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(C)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Total Cost Price = 600 + 1300 = 1900
\nSelling Price of cheaper article = 600 * 0.8 = 480
\nSelling Price of costlier article = 1300 * 1.2 = 1560
\nTotal Selling Price = 480 + 1560 = 2040
\nTotal profit = 2040 – 1900 = Rs 140
\nProfit Percentage = $\\frac{140}{1900}*100$ = 7.37%<\/p>\n

10)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(A)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Let the CP of apples be Rs x\/g.<\/p>\n

When the balance shows 1000g, the customer pays for 1000g and gets 850g apples.<\/p>\n

SP = 1000x (As the balance shows 1000g)<\/p>\n

CP = 850x (As he is selling only 850 g in reality)<\/p>\n

Profit = SP-CP = 1000x-850x = 150x<\/p>\n

Profit % =$\\frac{Profit}{CP}*100 = \\frac{150x}{850x}*100 = 17.64\\%$<\/p>\n\n
