A shopkeeper expects a gain of 45/2 % on his C.P. If his sale was Rs. 392, then find his profit.

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

Gain % = (164.36*100/2400) = 6.84 % = 7% approx

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

We need to get the Total selling price to solve this question. Because after getting selling price we can get profit or loss, then we can calculate profit% or loss%

So lets solve this:

Price Received by selling one fourth of the material at a loss of 20% =
(1/4) * 600 * (80/100) = Rs. 120

Price Received by remaining material at a gain of 10% =
(3/4) * 600 * (110/100) = Rs. 495 [Note: 1-(1/4) = 3/4]

Total Selling Price = 120 + 465 = Rs. 615

Profit = 615 - 600 = 15

\begin{aligned}
Profit\% = \left( \frac{Gain}{Cost} * 100 \right)\% \\
= \left( \frac{15}{600} * 100 \right)\% \\
= \frac{5}{2}\% = 2\frac{1}{2}\%
\end{aligned}

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 C

Explanation:

Whenever we get this type of question, we should have formula in mind that,
Gain% = (gain/cost)*100

Cost = 4700 + 800 = Rs. 5500
S.P. = Rs. 5800

Profit = 5800 - 5500 = 300
\begin{aligned}
Gain\% = \frac{300}{5500}*100 \\
= 5\frac{5}{11}\%
\end{aligned}

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Let the cost of Production = Rs. P
Then, as per question,

\begin{aligned}
=> \left( \frac{125}{100} *\frac{115}{100}*\frac{110}{100} * P \right) = 1265\\
=> \frac{253}{160}P = 1265 \\
=> P = 800
\end{aligned}
