      Question

      A seller calculated his intended selling price at 6%

      profit on the cost of a product. However, owing to some mistake while selling, the units and tens digits of the selling price got interchanged. This reduced the profit by Rs. 33 and profit percentage to 3.8%. What is the cost price of the product?
      A Rs 5000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B Rs 16000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Rs 4500 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Rs 1500 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E Rs 8000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Profit % reduced = 6 - 3.8 = 2.2% Therefore, required C.P = (33/2.2) x 100 = Rs 1500
