Q 2905) A shopkeeper earned a profit by selling an item, which is three times the discount offered. If the discount offered is 6.25%, what is his profit percentage? (CUET-UG General Test 2024)
(A) 10% (B) 15% (C) 20% (D) 25%
Ans: (D) 25%
Solution: SP = Rs.100 Less Discount Rs. 6.25, Less Profit Rs.18.75 = CP Rs.75
Profit percentage = Profit/CP x 100= 18.75/75 x 100 = 25%
Q 2906) Amar had a loss of 20% on selling an article for Rs. 7,160. At what price should he have sold the item to make a profit of 30%? (CUET-UG General Test 2023)
(A) Rs. 8,988 (B) Rs. 10,678 (C) Rs. 11,635 (D) Rs. 12,007
Ans: (C) Rs. 11,635
Solution:
Selling Price = Rs. 7,160 and Loss = 20%,
therefore Cost Price =100/(100-Loss) x Selling Price = 100/(100-20) x 7,160 = Rs. 8,950
Now, required profit = 30%, therefore New Selling Price= (100+Profit)/100 x Cost Price = (100+30)/100 x 8,950 = Rs. 11,635
