The cost price of 20 articles is the same as the selling price of x articles. If the profit is 25% then determine the value of x.

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:

Please remember
\begin{aligned}
S.P. = \left( \frac{100+gain\%}{100} * C.P \right)\\
\text{So, C.P. = }\left( \frac{100}{110} * 25.75 \right)\\
\text{When S.P. = 25.75 then } \\
Profit = 25.75 - 25 = Re. 0.75 \\

Profit\% = \frac{0.75}{25} * 100 = 3\%

\end{aligned}

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 C

Explanation:

So before solving this question we will get the C.P. and S.P. of 1 article to get the gain percent.

C.P. of 1 orange = 350/100 = Rs 3.50
S.P. of one orange = 48/12 = Rs 4 [note: divided by 12 as 1 dozen contains 12 items]
Gain = 4 - 3.50 = Rs 0.50
\begin{aligned}
Gain\% = \frac{0.50}{3.50}*100 \\
= \frac{100}{7}\%
= 14\frac{2}{7}\%
\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}
