A producer of tea blends two varieties of tea from two tea gardens one costing Rs 18 per kg and another Rs 20 per kg in the ratio 5 : 3. If he sells the blended variety at Rs 21 per kg, then his gain percent is

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Let the Cost Price of 1 item = Re. 1
Cost Price of 16 items = 16
Selling Price of 16 items = 12

Loss = 16 - 12 = Rs 4

Loss % = (4/16)* 100 = 25%

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

So we have C.P. = 27.50
S.P. = 28.60

Gain = 28.60 - 27.50 = Rs. 1.10

\begin{aligned}
Gain\% = \left( \frac{Gain}{Cost} * 100 \right)\% \\
= \left( \frac{1.10}{27.50} * 100 \right)\% = 4\%
\end{aligned}

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Let the new S.P. be x, then.
(100 - loss%):(1st S.P.) = (100 + gain%):(2nd S.P.)

\begin{aligned}
=>\left( \frac{95}{1140} = \frac{105}{x} \right) \\

=> x = 1260
\end{aligned}

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

We Know,

\begin{aligned}
S.P. = \left( \frac{100+gain\%}{100} * C.P \right)\\
=> C.P. = \frac{100}{122.50}* 392 \\
= 320 \\

Profit = 392 -320 = Rs 72
\end{aligned}

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Let the C.P. = x,
Then S.P. = (120/100)x = 6x/5
New S.P. = 2(6x/5) = 12x/5

Profit = 12x/5 - x = 7x/5

Profit% = (Profit/C.P.) * 100
=> (7x/5) * (1/x) * 100 = 140 %
