      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?
      A 10% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 25% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 34% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 28% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      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
