Question 3

A man sells his articles in such a way that even after allowing 25% discount on cash purchase, he gains 10 5/14 %. If the cost price of the articles is Rs.280 then the labeled price is:

• 
  c.p=280
  s.p=((100 * 10.35)*280)/100=309
  lwt x be labelled price
  0.75*x=309
  x=412

• according to the given situation..
  (75/100)*labelled price= (100 + 145/14)/100 * 280
  on solving we will get
  lp=412

• labeled price=((100+gain)/(100-discount))*cost price
  = ((100+145/14)/(100-25))*280
  = 412

• Let the labelled price= Rs. x
  He gains (145/14)% on Rs. 280 even after allowing 25% discount on Rs. x.
  so,
  280+(145/14% of 280) =x- 0.25x
  x= Rs. 412

• Let the required labeled price be Rs. K
  After giving 25% discount, S.P. = Rs. k - 25% of k ...(1)
  C.P. of the article = Rs.280.
  Since, he gains 10 5/14 % on C.P., S.P = Rs. 140 + 10 5/14 % of 140
  = Rs. 140 + (145/14) % of 140 ...(2)
  From (1) and (2), we have
  k - 25% of k = 140 + (145/14)% of 140
  k - 25k/100 = 140 + 140x(145/14)/100
  (75k)/100 = [14000 + 140x(145/14)]/100
  75k = 14000 + 140x(145/14) = 14000 + (10x145) = 15450
  75k = 15450
  k = 206
  Hence, the labeled price of the article is Rs.206.

• let level price=x
  after discount=3x/4
  280+280(145/1400)=3x/4 (145/14%)
  x=398.667

• CP=280
  PROFIT=145*280/1400=29
  SP=309
  MARKED PRICE X =>75% OF X=309
  X=30900/75
  X=412.

• worsen mean make the things worse.....then relieve means cause to become less serious
  
  answer (B) is the correct...
• 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(1)
• C.P=280
  With the S.P formula
  It is given as
  S.P=((100+10.35)*280)/100
  S.P=309
  Thus the labelled price is
  75/100*x=309
  0.75*x=309
  Thus x= 412
