$5x_1 - 5y = y$
Where C.P. = Rs.$x_1$; S.P. = Rs.y
$5x_1$ = 6y ⇒ y = Rs.$5/6x_1$
$x = {x_1 - {5/6}x_1}/{x_1} × 100$
= $x_1/{6x_1} × 100 = 50/3 = 16{2}/3%$

Question : 1
If the profit per cent got on selling an article is numerically equal to its cost price in rupees and the selling price is 39, then cost price (in ) will be
a) 28
b) 22
c) 30
d) 20
Answer »Answer: (c)
Using Rule 3,If an object is sold on r% Profit.
then,S.P. = C.P$[{100 + \text"Profit%"}/100]$orC.P. = S.P$[100/{100 + \text"Profit%"}]$
Similarly, If an object is sold on r% loss, then
S.P. = C.P.$[{100 - \text"Loss%"}/100]$orC.P. = S.P$[100/{100 - \text"Loss%"}]$
Let the CP of the article be x Gain % = x%
${39 - x}/x × 100$
$3900 - 100x = x^2$
$x^2 + 100x - 3900$ = 0
$x^2 + 130x - 30x - 3900$ = 0
x (x + 130) - 30 (x + 130) = 0
(x - 30) (x + 130) = 0
x = 30 as x cannot be negative
Question : 2

a) 390
b) 380
c) 400
d) 370
Answer »Answer: (a)
Let the C.P. of article be x,
then, 425 - x = x - 355
2x = 425 + 355 = 780
x = $780/2$ = Rs.390

a) 20%
b) 33$1/3$%
c) 22%

Let the C.P. of each article be Re. 1.
C.P. of 21 articles = Rs. 21
S.P. of 21 articles = Rs. 28
