Question Detail
Sahil purchased a machine at Rs 10000, then got it repaired at Rs 5000, then gave its transportation charges Rs 1000. Then he sold it with 50% of profit. At what price he actually sold it.
- Rs. 22000
- Rs. 24000
- Rs. 26000
- Rs. 28000
Answer: Option B
Explanation:
Question seems a bit tricky, but it is very simple.
Just calculate all Cost price, then get 150% of CP.
C.P. = 10000 + 5000 + 1000 = 16000
150% of 16000 = 150/100 * 16000 = 24000
1. The cost price of 20 articles is the same as the selling price of x articles. If the profit is 25%, find out the value of x
- 13
- 14
- 15
- 16
Answer: Option D
Explanation:
Let the Cost Price of one article = Rs. 1
CP of x articles = Rs. x
CP of 20 articles = 20
Selling price of x articles = 20
Profit = 25% [Given]
\begin{aligned}
\Rightarrow \left (\dfrac{SP - CP }{CP}\right ) = \dfrac{25}{100} = \dfrac{1}{4}
& \Rightarrow \dfrac{\left(20-x \right )}{x} = \dfrac{1}{4} \\
& \Rightarrow 80 - 4x = x \\
& \Rightarrow 5x = 80 \nonumber \\
& \Rightarrow x = \dfrac{80}{5} = 16 \\
\end{aligned}
2. A shopkeeper sells a transistor at Rs. 840 at a gain of 20% and another for Rs. 960 at the loss of 4%. Find his total gain percent.
- \begin{aligned} 5\frac{12}{17}\% \end{aligned}
- \begin{aligned} 5\frac{13}{17}\% \end{aligned}
- \begin{aligned} 5\frac{14}{17}\% \end{aligned}
- \begin{aligned} 5\frac{15}{17}\% \end{aligned}
Answer: Option D
Explanation:
In this type of question, we will first find total C.P. of items, then total S.P. of items, then we will get gain or loss. From which we can easily calculate its percentage.
So lets solve it now.
\begin{aligned}
\text{So, C.P. of 1st transistor = }\\
\left( \frac{100}{120} * 840 \right) = 700 \\
\text{C.P. of 2nd transistor = }\\
\left( \frac{100}{96} * 960 \right) = 1000 \\
\text{Total C.P. = 1700 }\\
\text{Total S.P. = 1800 }\\
\text{Gain = 1800 - 1700 = 100}\\
\text{Gain% = } \left( \frac{100}{1700} * 100 \right) \\
= 5\frac{15}{17}\%
\end{aligned}
3. Sahil purchased a machine at Rs 10000, then got it repaired at Rs 5000, then gave its transportation charges Rs 1000. Then he sold it with 50% of profit. At what price he actually sold it.
- Rs. 22000
- Rs. 24000
- Rs. 26000
- Rs. 28000
Answer: Option B
Explanation:
Question seems a bit tricky, but it is very simple.
Just calculate all Cost price, then get 150% of CP.
C.P. = 10000 + 5000 + 1000 = 16000
150% of 16000 = 150/100 * 16000 = 24000
4. A shopkeeper sold an article for Rs 2564.36. Approximately what was his profit percent if the cost price of the article was Rs 2400
- 4%
- 5%
- 6%
- 7%
Answer: Option D
Explanation:
Gain % = (164.36*100/2400) = 6.84 % = 7% approx
5. In terms of percentage profit, which among following the best transaction.
- C.P. 36, Profit 17
- C.P. 50, Profit 24
- C.P. 40, Profit 19
- C.P. 60, Profit 29
Answer: Option D
