A. No loss or gain
B. Loss of Rs. 1000
C. Gain of Rs. 1000
D. Gain of Rs. 2000
Explanation:
Loss% = (20/10)2 = (2)2 = 4%
Total S.P = Rs. 24000
Total C.P = Rs. (100/96 × 24000) = Rs. 25000
Loss = Rs. 1000
A. Rs. 600
B. Rs. 700
C. Rs. 800
D. Rs. 685
Explanation:
Original price be Rs. X
C.P = (X – 25% of X) = 3X/4
S.P = (3X/4 + 10% of 3X/4) = 33X/40
33X/40 = 660
=> X = 800
A. 3%
B. 4%
