Question
A trader marks an article 25% above its cost price and
then sells it at 15% profit after allowing a discount of x% on the marked price. If the cost price of the article is Rs.2000, find the selling price (Rs.) when the article is sold at (x + 5)% profit.Solution
ATQ, Marked price of the article = 2000 × 125/100 = Rs.2500 So, selling price when profit is 15% = 2000 × 115/100 = Rs.2300 So, 2500 × (100 − x) / 100 = 2300 Or, 2500(100 − x) = 230000 Or, 100 − x = 230000 / 2500 = 92 Or, x = 8 So, required selling price when profit is (x + 5)% = 13% Required selling price = 2000 × 113/100 = Rs.2260

What will be the approximate value of the following questions.
(79.79% of 400.23 + 7/8 of 319.77) × (√35.66 + 1/5 of 200.27) = ?
583.9 + 1519.98 - 445.21 = 1150.011 + ?
?% of 399.97 = 11.982 + 16.13 × 4.16 – 35.99
9.89 x 4.99 + 2.01 x 49.89 = ?% of 299.69
`1804/898-:99/699xx749/751=?`
(15.15 × 31.98) + 30.15% of 719.99 = ? + 124.34
What approximate value will come in place of the question mark (?) in the following question? (Note: You are not expected to calculate the exact value.)...
68.98 × 41.03 – (12.33)² + 15.78% of 8398.87 = ? – 40.22
24.89% of 720.01 - 4.09 × ? = (5.89)2
