Correct answer is: 50
Explanation:
\(\text{Profit = Selling price of 4 notebooks cost}\)

\(\therefore \% \text{ profit = } \frac{4}{8}\times 100 = 50\)
Mr.Shivkumar started a business investing Rs.25,000 in 1996. In 1997 he invested an additional amount of Rs.10,000 and Mr.Rakesh joined him with an amount of Rs.35,000 in 1998. Mr.Shivkumar invested another additional amount of Rs.10,000 and Mr.Suresh joined them with an amount of Rs.35,000. What will be Rakesh's share in the profit of Rs.1,50,000 earned at the end of three years from the start of the business in 1996?
Nithin ? Aug 3 '2022 at 5:59
Correct answer: Rs.50,000
Explanation:
Shivkumar's equivalent capital
= (25000 x 3) + (10000 x 2) + (10000 x 1) = 105000
Rakesh's equivalent capital = 35000 x 2 = 70000
Suresh's equivalent capital = 35000 x 1 = 35000
Total profit of Rs.150000 will be distributed in the ratio of their equivalent capitals.
Shivkumar : Rakesh : Suresh = 105 : 70 : 35
= 3 : 2 : 1
Rakesh's share in the total profit = 2/(3 + 2 + 1) x 150000
= Rs.50000
Mr.X a businessman had the income in the year 1995, such that he can-led a profit of 20% on his investment in the business. In the year 1996 his investment was less by Rs.5,000 but still had the same income (Income = Investment + Profit) as that in 1995. Thus the per cent profit earned in 1996 increased by 6%. What was his investment in 1995?
Nithin ? Aug 2 '2022 at 21:45
Correct answer is: Rs.1,05,000
Explanation:
Let the investment in 1995 be Rs.x
Income in 1995 with 20% profit = 1.20x
Also the income in 1996 = 1.20x
Investment in 1996
= Rs.(x - 5000)
Profit in 1996 = (20 + 6)% = 26%
Income in 1996 with 26% profit
= 1.26 (x - 5000)
Therefore, 1.26 (x 5000) = 1.20x
0.06 x = 1.26 x 5000\(x = \Large \frac{6300}{0.06}\)
x = Rs.105000
An article was sold for Rs. 5220 at a loss of 42% of the cost price. What will be the selling price of the article for a profit of 42% ?
Nithin ? Aug 2 '2022 at 21:29
Correct answer is: Rs.12780
Explanation:
C.P. of article
\(= \Large 5220 \times \frac{100}{ \left(100-42\right) }\)
\(= \Large \frac{5220 \times 100}{58} \text{ = Rs.9000}\)
\(\therefore \text{ Required S.P.}\)
\(= \Large \frac{9000 \times 142}{100} \text{ = Rs.12780}\)
A shopkeeper sells two watches for Rs.308 each. On one he gets 12% profit and on the other 12% loss. His profit or loss in the entire transaction was

Correct answer is: \(\Large 1\frac{11}{25} \text{ % loss}\)
Explanation:
\(\text{= }\Large \left(\frac{Common\ gain\ or\ loss}{10}\right)^{2}\)\(= \Large \left(\frac{12}{10}\right)^{2} =\frac{36}{25} = 1\frac{11}{25}\)
Manish bought 25 kg ofrice at Rs.32 per kg and 15 kg of rice at Rs.36 per kg. What profit did he get when he mixed the two varieties together and sold it at Rs.40.20 per kg ?
nithin ? Aug 2 '2022 at 8:29
Correct answer is: 0.2
Explanation:
\(\text{CP. of 40 kg of mixture = Rs. }\Large 25 \times 32 + 15 \times 36\)
\(\text{= Rs }\Large 25 \times 32 + 15 \times 36\)
\(\text{= Rs. }\Large \left(800 + 540\right) \text{= Rs. 1340}\)
\(\text{SP of 40 kg of mixture}\)
\(\text{= Rs}. \left(40 \times 40.2\right) \text{= Rs.1608}\)
\(\text{Profit = Rs. (1608 - 1340) = Rs.268}\)
\(\text{Profit % = } \Large \frac{268}{1340} \times 100 \text{= 20%}\)
