      amount on transportation and then sells it for Rs.1,400. If the percentage of profit made by the grocer is 30%, then what is the amount (in) he spends on transportation? (Round off to the nearest integer)
      A 352 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 377 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 262 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 272 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Let the amount he spends on transportation = x So total CP =700+x Profit = 30% and SP =1400 Total CP =(SPΓ—100)/100+30 700+x = (1400Γ—100)/130 700+x =1077 x =1077-700=377. =377.
