Question
Ratio of cost price of two items P and Q is 2:5. Item P
and Item Q are marked 25% above and 30% above their respective cost price. If the ratio of discount percent allowed on item P to item Q is 1:2 and profit made on the items P & Q is 12.5% & 4% respectively, then find which of the following statement/s is /are true. (Note: discount percentage on item P is ‘d’ %) (i) Value of ‘d’ is odd number. (ii) Value of ‘d’ is prime number. (iii) ‘d’ is less than 12 and greater than 8Solution
Let cost price of P & Q be 200x and 500x respectively Marked price of P = 200x × (125/100) = 250x Marked price of Q = 500x×130/100=650x ATQ, [250x×((100-d))/100+650x×((100-2d))/100]=200x×112.5/100+500x×104/100 [2.5x×(100-d)+6.5x×(100-2d) ]=225x+520x [250x-2.5xd+650x-13xd]=745x  155x=15.5xd 10=d  From (i) d = 10 10 is not an odd number. From (ii) d = 10 10 is not a prime number.  From (ii) d = 10 ‘d’ is less than 12 and greater than 8. So, only (iii)

Calculate the simplified result of the following expression: 12 × 18 ÷ 3 + 36 of 32 ÷ 3
555.05 + 55.50 + 5.55 + 5 +0.55 = ?   Â
Simplify the following expression:
(125 × 12 × √8100) ÷ 150 = ?
20% of 240 + 18% of 200 = ?
85% of 620 + ? % of 1082 = 4855
- What will come in place of (?), in the given expression.
√2025 + 35% of 400 = ? 95% of 830 - ? % of 2770 = 650
154 × 7 + 480 × 5 = ?% of 6956
