4) Rs. 400
Read Solution (Total 23)
-
- c) Rs. 450
Cost price= 540*(100/120)=450 - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(22) No(2)
- c)450
540/1.2=450 - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(6) No(1)
- let Cost Price(C.P) = x
gain%={(S.P-C.P)/C.P}*100
20={(540-x)/x}*100
20/100=(540-x)/x
x=5(540-x)
6x=2700
x=450
So,Cost Price= Rs.450 - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(5) No(0)
- C.P=(100/100+gain%)*S.P
C.P=100/120*540
C.P= 450

- Profit%=profit*100/cp
20=(sp-cp)*100/cp
cp=450 - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
- cp profit sp
100 20 120
x 540
do cross multiplication
540 * 100 =120 * X
X = 540*100 / 120 =450 - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
- sp=120/100*cp
cp=(540*100)/120=450

- 20% of 450 =90
therefore 450+90=550 - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(3)
- ans is 450

- 120********>540
100********>?
(540*100)/120=450
ans 450 - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- profit=20%
s.P=540
s.p=120/100*x
540=6/5*x
x=540*5/6
x=450 - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- OPTION C: RS.450
- 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
profit= 100+20= so 120
CP=(100/120)*540 = 450- 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- 450
in 450 20% is 90
so 450+90=540
i will go through based on answer

- 120% of cp is 540 so 120% is 540 100% is 450.

- 100%=x
120%=540
X=(540*100)/120
X=450 - 7 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- Ans:3) Rs.450
cp=100/(100+gain%)*sp
cp=(100/(100+20))*540
cp=450 - 7 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- 120%--->540
100%--->x
X=(100*540)%120
X=400 - 6 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- answer=Rs.450(C)
sp=(100+p/100) *cp
540=(100+20/100)*cp
cp=450 - 4 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- CP=(100/(100+gain%))*SP
- 4 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- given -
selling price = 540
profit = 20%
formula for finding cost price = ((100/ 100+ profit))*sp
(100/100+20)*540 = 450 - 3 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
