Question
A trader cheats by using a weighing scale that shows 1
kg while actually giving only 900 grams. He also marks up the goods by 25% and then gives a 10% discount. What is his profit percentage?Solution
ATQ,
Let the quantity of goods sold = 1000 grams
Let the price of goods be Rs. x per gram
Marked price = 1000x × 1.25 = Rs. 1250x
Selling price = 1250x × 0.9 = Rs. 1125x
Cost price = 900x

Statement: X > W = P; X > G > F; X < O
Conclusion: I. F < W      II. P ≤ F
Statement: C ≥ O ≥ S = Z ≤ N = R
Conclusions:
I. C > N
II. S ≤ R
Statements: J > K > L, L < M > X, X = Y > Z
Conclusion:
I. L = Z
II. J > Y
