  • Question 1
    1 / -0
    A person buys $$100$$ caps at Rs. $$10$$ each. On the way $$10$$ caps are Stolen. He sells the remaining caps at Rs. $$12$$ each. His Profit per cent is ?
    Solution
    Person buys 100 caps at Rs 10 each.

    So, Cost Price (CP) $$=100\times10=1000\ Rs$$

    10 caps are stolen. Remaining $$100-10=90$$ are sold at Rs 12 each.

    So, Selling Price (SP) $$=90\times12=1080\ Rs$$

    $$\therefore Profit=SP-CP = 1080-1000=80\ Rs$$

    $$\Rightarrow Profit\ percentage=\dfrac{profit\times 100}{CP}=\dfrac{80\times 100}{1000}=8\%$$
  • Question 2
    1 / -0
    Convert $$\dfrac{15}{50}$$ into percentage
    Solution
    $$\Rightarrow$$  We have to convert $$\dfrac{15}{50}$$ into percentage.
    $$\Rightarrow$$  $$\%=(\dfrac{15}{50}\times 100)\%$$

    $$\Rightarrow$$  $$\%=(15\times 2)\%$$

    $$\therefore$$    $$\%=30\%$$
  • Question 3
    1 / -0
    Convert $$\dfrac{14}{25}$$ into percentage
    Solution
    $$\Rightarrow$$  We have to convert $$\dfrac{14}{25}$$ into percentage.
    $$\Rightarrow$$  $$\%=(\dfrac{14}{25}\times 100)\%$$

    $$\Rightarrow$$  $$\%=(14\times 4)\%$$

    $$\therefore$$    $$\%=56\%$$
  • Question 4
    1 / -0
    Find the profit per cent or loss per cent made when the S.P. of 15 identical articles is equal to the C.P. of 30 articles.
    Solution
    Let cost price of an article $$=  X\ Rs$$

    Cost price for 15 articles $$= 15X\ Rs$$

    Selling price for 15 articles = Cost Price of 30 articles $$= 30X\ Rs$$ ( Given)

    So, $$Profit=Selling\ price-Cost\ price=30X-15X=15X\ Rs$$

    $$\therefore Profit\ percentage=\dfrac{profit\times100}{Cost\ price}=\dfrac{15X\times100}{15X}=100\%$$
  • Question 5
    1 / -0
    If SP of an article is $$\displaystyle\frac{5}{4}$$ of its CP then the profit percentage in the transaction is :
    Solution
    Let $$CP = x$$

    Given that, $$SP=\dfrac{5}{4}CP=\dfrac{5x}{4}$$

    $$\therefore profit = SP-CP=\dfrac{5}{4}SP-SP=\dfrac{SP}{4}=\dfrac{x}{4}$$

    $$\therefore profit\ percentage=\dfrac{profit\times100}{CP}=\dfrac{\dfrac{x}{4}\times100}{x}=25\%$$
  • Question 6
    1 / -0
    C.P. $$=$$ Rs. $$250$$, S.P. $$=$$ Rs. $$285$$, then Profit $$=$$ ________$$\%$$
  • Question 7
    1 / -0
    Equal sums of Rs.$$7200$$ were lent to Megha and Priya at $$5$$ $$\%$$ per annum for a period of $$4$$ years and $$5$$ years respectively. Find the difference of the interest paid by Megha and Priya.
    Solution
    Simple interest on the sum $$P$$ at rate of interest $$R$$ for $$N$$ years is given as $$\dfrac{PNR}{100}$$
    $$\text{Interest paid by Priya} = \dfrac{7200\times 5\times 5}{100}\\\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ =Rs\ 1800$$

    $$\text{Interest paid by Megha} = \dfrac{7200\times 4\times 5}{100}\\\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ =Rs\ 1440$$

    Difference $$= 1800-1440$$
                      $$=Rs\ 360$$ 
    Hence, D is the right option.
  • Question 8
    1 / -0
    A particular sum was divided among A, B and C in the ratio $$2:6:7$$ respectively. If the amount received by A was Rs. $$4,908$$, what was the difference between the amounts received by B and C?
    Solution
    Amount received by A$$=$$ Rs. $$4908$$
    Amount received by B$$=\displaystyle\frac{4908}{2}\times 6=$$Rs.$$14724$$
    Amount received by C$$=\displaystyle\frac{4908}{2}\times 7=$$Rs. $$17178$$
    Required difference $$=17178-14724$$
    $$=$$Rs. $$2454$$.
  • Question 9
    1 / -0
    Madhavi bought a scooter for $$Rs. 40,000$$ but she does not have enough money to pay all at once. The shopkeeper says that she can divide the cost into 4 equal monthly instalments but she would have to pay $$Rs.100$$ extra each month for 4 months. What is this additional amount paid by Madhavi to the shopkeeper called as and calculate the total extra amount at the end of 4 months paid by Madhavi?
    Solution
    $$Cost \space of \space scooter=Rs.40000$$
    $$No. \space of \space installments=4$$
    $$\therefore cost \space of \space each \space installments=\frac{40000}{4}$$
    $$=10000$$
    $$But \space 100 \space is \space paid \space extra \space in \space each \space instalment.$$
    $$Total \space extra \space amt. \space paid=100\times4=400$$
    The  seller  costs  this  extra  $$400$$  as  interest  as  the  profit  is  included  in  $$Rs.40000$$
    $$\therefore option \space D$$
  • Question 10
    1 / -0
    Sugar is bought at Rs. $$16.20$$ per kg and sold at Rs. $$17.28$$ per kg. The gain percent is ____________.
    Solution
    Cost Price (CP) of 1 kg of sugar $$= 16.20$$ Rs

    Selling Price (SP) of 1 kg of sugar $$=17.28$$ Rs

    $$Gain = SP-CP=17.28-16.20=1.08\ Rs$$

    $$Gain\ Percent=\dfrac{Gain\times100}{CP}=\dfrac{1.08\times100}{16.20}=\dfrac{20}{3}=6\dfrac{2}{3}\%$$
