A) 37.5
B) 48
C) 50.5
D) 52
Correct Answer: A
Solution :
[a] Let MP of the article = Rs. x \[\therefore \] CP of the article \[=\frac{x\times 64}{100}=\text{Rs}.\,\,\frac{16x}{25}\] and SP of the article \[=\frac{x\times (100-12)}{100}=\text{Rs}.\,\,\frac{x\times 22}{25}\] \[\Rightarrow \] Profit \[=\left( \frac{25x}{25}-\frac{16x}{25} \right)=\text{Rs}\text{.}\,\,\frac{6x}{25}\] Hence, profit per cent \[=\frac{\frac{6x}{25}}{\frac{6x}{25}}\times 100%=\frac{6\times 100}{16}=37.5%\] |
