Question : 1
A man sold 250 chairs and had a gain equal to selling price of 50 chairs. His profit per cent is :
a) 50%
b) 25%
c) 15%
d) 20%
Answer »Answer: (b)
S.P. of 250 chairs - C.P. of 250 chairs
= S.P. of 50 chairs
S.P. of 200 chairs = C.P. of 250 chairs
profit%= ${250 - 200}/200 × 100 = 25%$
Using Rule 9,
Here, x = 250, y = 50
∴ Profit% = ${y × 100}/{x - y}$
= ${50 × 100}/{250 - 50} = 50/2$ = 25%
Question : 2
Last year Mr. A bought two paintings. This year he sold them for Rs. 20,000 each. On one, he made a 25% profit and on the other he had a 25% loss. Then his net profit or loss is
a) He earned more than Rs. 2000
b) He lost less than Rs. 2000
c) He earned less than Rs. 2000
d) He lost more than Rs. 2000
Answer »Answer: (d)
C.P. of first painting
= ${20000 × 100}/125$ = Rs.16000
C.P. of second painting
= ${20000 × 100}/75$ = Rs.26666.7
Loss = Rs.(16000 + 26666.7 - 40000)
= Rs.2666.7
Question : 3
Profit after selling a commodity for 524 is the same as loss after selling it for 452. The cost price of the commodity is
a) 488
b) 500
c) 485
d) 480
Answer »Answer: (a)
Let the cost price of the commodity = Rs.x
According to the question,
524 - x = x - 452
or 2x = 524 + 452
or 2x = 976 or $x =976/2 = 488$
∴ The required price = Rs.488
