C. 8%
D. 10%
E. 20%

Explanation:
The ratio of the C.P. of the Article M and Article Q is 3:4.
C.P of Article M = 2160 Rs.
C.P. of Article Q = 2160×4/3
=2880 Rs.
S.P. of Article Q = 2880×125%
= 3600 Rs
M.P. of Article Q = 4000 Rs.
Discount % = (M.P.-S.P.)×100/M.P.
= (4000-3600)×100/4000
=10%
A. 12%
B. 15%
C. 8%
D. 10%
E. 20%
Ans. D.
Explanation:
The ratio of the C.P. of the Article M and Article Q is 3:4.
C.P of Article M = 2160 Rs.
C.P. of Article Q = 2160×4/3
=2880 Rs.
S.P. of Article Q = 2880×125%
= 3600 Rs
M.P. of Article Q = 4000 Rs.
Discount % = (M.P.-S.P.)×100/M.P.
= (4000-3600)×100/4000
=10%
Question. 2
If the discount % and profit % of the Article P is same. Find out the M.P. of Article P.
A. 2800 Rs.
B. 2200 Rs.
C. 3500 Rs.
D. 3000 Rs.
E. None of these.
Ans. B.
Explanation:
The Profit % and the Discount % of the Article P = x
Cost Price×(100+x)/100 = S.P.
1800×(100+x) = 1980×100
180000+1800x = 198000
1800x = 198000-180000
1800x = 18000
x = 10%
M.P. = 1980/90×100
M.P. = 2200 Rs.
A. 2800 Rs.
B. 2200 Rs.
C. 3500 Rs.
D. 3000 Rs.
E. None of these.
Ans. B.
Explanation:
The Profit % and the Discount % of the Article P = x
Cost Price×(100+x)/100 = S.P.
1800×(100+x) = 1980×100
180000+1800x = 198000
1800x = 198000-180000
1800x = 18000
x = 10%
M.P. = 1980/90×100
M.P. = 2200 Rs.
Question. 3
If the M.P. of Article M is Rs. 130 more than the C.P. of Article N and the difference between .P. and S.P. of Article N is Rs. 684. Find the discount % of Article N.
A. 18%
B. 25%
C. 30%
D. 20%
E. None of these.
Ans. E.
Explanation:
M.P. of Article M = 2560 Rs.
C.P. of Article N = 2560-130 = 2430 Rs.
S.P. of Article N = 2430×120/100
= 2916 Rs.
M.P. of Article N = 2916+684 = 3600 Rs.
Discount % = (3600-2916)×100/3600
Discount % = 684×100/3600
Discount % = 19%
A. 18%
B. 25%
C. 30%
D. 20%

Explanation:
The ratio of discount % and profit % is 4:3.
Discount % = 20%
Profit % = (20×3)/4

C.P. = M.P. × (100-Discount %)/ (100+Profit %)
C.P. = 2875 × (100-20%)/ (100+15%)
CP. = 2875×80/115
C.P. = 2000 Rs.
A. 1200 Rs.
B. 2800 Rs
C. 3500 Rs.
D. 2000 Rs.
E. None of these
Ans. D.
Explanation:
The ratio of discount % and profit % is 4:3.
Discount % = 20%
Profit % = (20×3)/4
= 15%
C.P. = M.P. × (100-Discount %)/ (100+Profit %)
C.P. = 2875 × (100-20%)/ (100+15%)
CP. = 2875×80/115
C.P. = 2000 Rs.
