Question
The shopkeeper sold the earrings at the profit of 15%
and the cost price of earrings is Rs.4200. He earns x% profit on bracelet costing Rs.3500. If the overall profit on selling both earrings and bracelet is 20%, then find the value of x?Solution
Overall profit = 20/100 × (4200 + 3500) = 1540 Profit on Earrings = 4200 × 15/100 = 630 Profit on Bracelet = 1540 – 630 = 910 => x = (910/3500) × 100 => x = 26%
