- let the cost price be 100 of 1 kg....now he will sell 1 kg in 105 but due to error in weighing stones he will sell only 900 gram in 105 but he has paid 900*(100/1000)=90 rs for 900 grams. net profit=105-90=15 Rs...
percentage=100*(15/90)=16^2/3...therefore b is correct. - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(42) No(0)

- let cp=100,then mp=105,
we know,(goods left/goods sold)*100.i.e,
(10/90)*100=11.11%.
ATQ,we have 5%.therefore total mark up will be 5%+11.11%=16.11%.APPROX,OPTION B
