    A dishonest dealer professes to sell his good at cost price but uses a false weight and thus gains 20%. For a kilogram he uses a weight of

    A) 700 g               

    B) 750 g    

    C) 800 g   

    D) 850 g

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Let  \[\text{SP}\,\,\text{=}\,\,\text{CP}\,\,\text{=}\,\,\text{Rs}.\,x\] Gain percentage \[=x\times \frac{20}{100}=\frac{x}{5}\] Gain weight \[=\frac{x}{5}\times 1000=200\,g\] Hence, he uses the weight 800 g.
