Tushar belwal 3 years ago

If u add water then amount of milk remains same i.e
Initial amount of Milk = 95% × 40 = 38
Final amount of milk = 90% × (x) =38
=> x=42+2/9
Amount of water added = 42+2/9 -40 = 2+2/9

66.66%
If CP=x, SP or list price=y
Given, 0.75y=1.25x, So when sold at its list price=y, Profit=1.25x * y/0.75y=5x/3=1.6666x
So profit=66.66%

32 & 16 Rs/Kg.
If two quantities are 2x & 3x and Prices be 2y & y respectively, then
Cost Price= (2x*2y) + (3x*y)= 7xy
Selling Price@ 28/Kg =28*5x= 140x
Given, Selling Price= 125% of Cost price or 140x= (125/100)*(7xy), y=16
So the cost of varities are 2y & y =32 & 16 Rs. respectively

BY SELLING 12 KG OF ONIONS FOR RS.63 , I GAIN 5 %. WHAT DO I GAIN OR LOSE PERCENT BY SELLING 50 KG OF THE SAME ONIONS FOR RS. 247.50P ? WITH EXPLANATION

Reply Like? Yes | No

Devendra Marghade 5 years ago

1% loss
SP of 1 Kg. =63/12, As 5% gain is made, so Actual cost or CP of 1 Kg=(63/12)*(100/105)=5
Per Kg. price when 50 Kg. is sold for Rs. 247.5= 247.5/50= 4.95
So % loss= (5- 4.95)*100/5 =1

neha pallavi 5 years ago

let selling price of 66 meters cloth is x.
so,1 meter cloth price is x/66.
then,22 meter cloth price are (x/66)*22=x/3.
and let cost price of 66 meters cloth is y.
gain =sp-cp=x-y.
x/3=x-y
so,y=x-x/3=2x/3.
now,gain%=(100*gain)/cp=(100*x/3)/2x/3
so,gain %=(100x/3)*3/2x=50% is answer.

Per section before joining= 24
No. Of sections before joining = 13
Then total no. Of students before joining = 24*13=312
No. Of sections added after joining = 13+3=16
No. Of students per section after joining = 21
Then total no. Of students after joining= 16 * 21=336
So, total no. Of students joined = 336-312=24

This question can be solved with the help of alligation.
Some part is sold at a loss of 5% hence it is written as -5%.
In other their is neither loss nor profit hence other is 0.
Now he has an overall loss of 3% hence resultant is -3%.
-5 0
/
-3
/
(0 - (-3)) (-3 - (-5))

So ratio of selling is 3:2.
Part he sold at cost price is 2_ * 40 = 16 KG
