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

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Let the S.P = 100
then C.P. = 25

Profit = 75

Profit% = 75/25 * 100 = 3005

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

As question states that rate was of pair of articles,

So rate of One article = 37.40/2 = Rs. 18.70

Let Marked price = Rs X
then 85% of X = 18.70

=> X = 1870/85 = 22

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

So before solving this question we will get the C.P. and S.P. of 1 article to get the gain percent.

C.P. of 1 orange = 350/100 = Rs 3.50
S.P. of one orange = 48/12 = Rs 4 [note: divided by 12 as 1 dozen contains 12 items]
Gain = 4 - 3.50 = Rs 0.50
\begin{aligned}
Gain\% = \frac{0.50}{3.50}*100 \\
= \frac{100}{7}\%
= 14\frac{2}{7}\%
\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:

\begin{aligned}
Gain\% = \\ \left( \frac{(100 + \text{common gain}\%)^2}{100} - 100 \right)\% \\
= \left( \frac{(100 + 10)^2}{100} - 100 \right)\% \\
= \left( \frac{12100 - 10000}{100}\right)\% \\
= 21\%

\end{aligned}
