A) \[33\frac{1}{3}%\]
B) \[16\frac{2}{3}%\]
C) \[50%\]
D) \[47%~\]
Correct Answer: B
Solution :
Selling price of 1 horse =Rs. 4000 Profit % = 25% \[\therefore \] \[C.P.=\frac{100\times S.P.}{100+\text{Profit}%}=\frac{100\times 4000}{125}\] \[=Rs.\text{ }3200\] Since the man is having neither loss nor gain. \[\therefore \] Cost price of second horse = S.P. of 2 horses - C.P. of 1 horse \[=Rs.\,(8000-3200)=Rs.\,4800\] Now, Cost price of 2nd horse = Rs. 4800 Selling price = Rs. 4000 Loss \[=C.P.-S.P.=Rs.\,800\] \[\Rightarrow \] Loss % \[=\frac{800}{4800}\times 100=16\frac{2}{3}%\]You need to login to perform this action.
