Question
Devesh sells his car to Pranav at a profit of 20% who
sells it to Hemraj at a loss of 20%. Hemraj, after finding some scratches in the car, returns it to Pranav, but Pranav deducted 1/8th of the amount he got while giving the money back to Hemraj. Find Hemraj’s loss (in Rs.) in the transaction if Devesh bought the car for Rs. 3,50,000.Solution
Let Devesh’s C.P = Rs. 100 Devesh’s S.P = Pranav’s C.P = Rs. 120 Then, Pranav’s S.P = Hemraj’s C.P = 80% of 120 = Rs. 96 After deduction, Hemraj’s loss = 1/8*96 = 12 When Devesh pays Rs. 100, Hemraj’s loss was Rs. 12 When Devesh paid Rs. 3,50,000, Hemraj’s loss = 12/100*3,50,000 = Rs. 42,000
