Question Detail
Akhil purchased 70kg vegetable at Rs. 420, then sold them at the rate of Rs. 6.50 per kg, find the profit percent.
- \begin{aligned} 8\frac{1}{3}\% \end{aligned}
- \begin{aligned} 7\frac{1}{3}\% \end{aligned}
- \begin{aligned} 6\frac{1}{3}\% \end{aligned}
- \begin{aligned} 5\frac{1}{3}\% \end{aligned}
Answer: Option A
Explanation:
Please note in this type of questions, get the value of 1 kg to solve this question, lets solve it.
C.P. of 1 Kg = 420/70 = Rs. 6
Selling Price = 6.50
Gain = Rs. 0.50
\begin{aligned}
Gain\% = \frac{.50}{6}*100 \\
= 8\frac{1}{3}\%
\end{aligned}
1. A fruit seller sells mangoes at the rate of Rs.9 per kg and thereby loses 20%. At what price per kg, he should have sold them to make a profit of 5%
- Rs 8.81
- Rs 9.81
- Rs 10.81
- Rs 11.81
Answer: Option D
Explanation:
85 : 9 = 105 : x
x= (9×105/85)
= Rs 11.81
2. The cost price of 20 articles is the same as the selling price of x articles. If the profit is 25% then determine the value of x.
- 14
- 15
- 16
- 17
Answer: Option C
Explanation:
Let the cost price 1 article = Re 1
Cost price of x articles = x
S.P of x articles = 20
Gain = 20 -x
\begin{aligned}
=> 25 = \left( \frac{20-x}{x} * 100 \right) \\
=> 2000 - 100x = 25 x \\
=> x = 16
\end{aligned}
3. A man buys an item at Rs. 1200 and sells it at the loss of 20 percent. Then what is the selling price of that item
- Rs. 660
- Rs. 760
- Rs. 860
- Rs. 960
Answer: Option D
Explanation:
Here always remember, when ever x% loss,
it means S.P. = (100 - x)% of C.P
when ever x% profit,
it means S.P. = (100 + x)% of C.P
So here will be (100 - x)% of C.P.
= 80% of 1200
= 80/100 * 1200
= 960
4. A shopkeeper fixes the marked price of an item 35% above its cost price. The percentage of discount allowed to gain 8% is
- 18%
- 20%
- 22%
- 24%
Answer: Option B
Explanation:
Let the cost price = Rs 100
then, Marked price = Rs 135
Required gain = 8%,
So Selling price = Rs 108
Discount = 135 - 108 = 27
Discount% = (27/135)*100 = 20%
5. A man bought an article and sold it at a gain of 5 %. If he had bought it at 5% less and sold it for Re 1 less, he would have made a profit of 10%. The C.P. of the article was
- Rs 100
- Rs 150
- Rs 200
- Rs 250
Answer: Option C
Explanation:
Let original Cost price is x
Its Selling price = 105/100 * x = 21x/20
New Cost price = 95/100 * x = 19x/20
New Selling price = 110/100 * 19x/20 = 209x/200
[(21x/20) - (209x/200)] = 1
=> x = 200
