      Question

      A shopkeeper buys toffees at the rate of 14 for 1 rupee.

      At what rate (how many toffees per rupee) should he sell them to earn a 40% profit?
      A 11 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 10 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 6 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 12 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E 8 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      C.P. of 14 toffees = Rs. 1
      S.P. of 14 toffees = 140% of 1 = Rs. 7/5
      For Rs. 7/5, toffees sold = 14
      For Rs. 1, toffees sold = 10
