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

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:

Here always remember, when ever x% loss,
it means S.P. = (100 - x)% of C.P
when ever x% profit,
it means S.P. = (100 + x)% of C.P

So here will be (100 - x)% of C.P.
= 80% of 1200
= 80/100 * 1200
= 960

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

Please note in this type of questions, get the value of 1 kg to solve this question, lets solve it.

C.P. of 1 Kg = 420/70 = Rs. 6
Selling Price = 6.50
Gain = Rs. 0.50

\begin{aligned}
Gain\% = \frac{.50}{6}*100 \\
= 8\frac{1}{3}\%
\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}
