The ratio of the cost price and the selling price is 4:5. The profit percent is:__________?
A. 10%
B. 20%
C. 25%
D. 30%
Explanation:
Let C.P. = Rs. 4x. Then, S.P. = Rs. 5x
Gain = (5x – 4x) = Rs. x
Gain % = (x * 100)/ 4x = 25%.
A. 10%
B. 20%
C. 25%
D. 30%
Explanation:
Let C.P. = Rs. 4x. Then, S.P. = Rs. 5x
Gain = (5x – 4x) = Rs. x
Gain % = (x * 100)/ 4x = 25%.
A. Rs. 3944
B. Rs. 3828
C. Rs. 4176
D. None of these
Let the side of the square plot be a ft.
a2 = 289 => a = 17
Length of the fence = Perimeter of the plot = 4a = 68 ft.
Cost of building the fence = 68 * 58 = Rs. 3944.
A. 42.75%
B. 31.25%
C. 35.5%
D. 40.5%
E. None of these
Explanation:
Let the required percentage be x%.
3/20 = x% of 12/25 => 3/20 = x/100 * 12/25
=> 12x = (300 * 25)/20 => x = (25 * 25)/20
=> x = 31.25%.
A. Rs. 150
B. Rs. 144
C. Rs. 138
D. Rs. 132
E. None of these
Explanation:
Given that SP = Rs. 102 and loss = 15%
CP = [100(SP)]/(100 – l%) = (100 * 102)/85 = 20 * 6 = Rs. 120.
To get 20% profit, New SP = [(100 + p%)CP]/100 = (120 * 120)/100 = Rs. 144
A. 480 sq.m
B. 320 sq.m
C. 600√15 sq.m
D. 450√15
A. 12%
B. 10%
C. 6%
D. 4%
Explanation:
C.P = Rs. 100
Marked Price = Rs. 120,
S.P = Rs. 108
Discount = (12/120 × 100)% = 10%
A. 120, 40, 60 days
B. 120, 60, 80 days
C. 40, 30, 120 days
D. 30, 40, 60 days
Let a: be the time in which X & Y completes their work = 30 days
b: time in which Y & Z completes their work = 24 days
c: time in which X & Z completes their work = 40 days
X alone can complete the work in (2 * a * c) / (ab + bc – ac) days
= 2 * 30 * 24 * 40 / ((30 * 24) + (24 * 40) – (30 * 40)) = 120 days
Y alone can complete the work in 2 * a * b * c / (- ab + bc + ac) days
= 2 * 30 * 24 * 40 / (-(30 * 24) + (24 * 40) + (30 * 40)) = 40 days
Z alone can complete the work in 2 * a * b * c / (ab – bc + ac) days
= 2 * 30 * 24 * 40 / ((30 * 24) – (24 * 40) + (30 * 40))
= 60 days
