Question
The ratio of cost price to the marked price of an
article is 5:8. The article had been marked above its cost price by Rs. 432. If the article was sold at a discount of Rs. 180, then find the profit/loss percentage incurred.Solution
Let the cost price and marked price of the article be Rs. 5x and Rs. 8x, respectively
According to the question,
8x â 5x = 432
Or, x = 144
Therefore, cost price of the article = 5x = Rs. 720
Marked price of the article = 8x = Rs. 1152
Selling price of the article = 1152 â 180 = Rs. 972
Required profit percentage = {(972 â 720)/720} Ă 100 = 35%
