If the cost price of 12 items is equal to the selling price of 16 items, the loss percent is

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

We Know,

\begin{aligned}
S.P. = \left( \frac{100+gain\%}{100} * C.P \right)\\
=> C.P. = \frac{100}{122.50}* 392 \\
= 320 \\

Profit = 392 -320 = Rs 72
\end{aligned}

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%

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}

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Let the Cost price of article is Rs. x

Required ratio =
\begin{aligned}
\frac{104\% \text{ of } x}{106\% \text{ of } x} \\
= \frac{104}{106} = \frac{52}{53} = 52:53
\end{aligned}

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

We know, C.P. = 5000
S.P. = 4000
Loss = 5000 - 4000 = 1000
\begin{aligned}
Loss\% = \left( \frac{Loss}{Cost} * 100 \right)\% \\
= \left( \frac{1000}{5000} * 100 \right)\% = 20\%
\end{aligned}
