Answer key with Explanation

1) (e) Let A’s  cost price be Rs.100

Profit%  = Rs.40%

So, selling price = Rs.140

Discount%  = 30%

Marked price = 70% of X=140

=Rs.200

Let C’s  cost price be Rs.100

Loss% = Rs.10%

So, selling price = Rs.90

Discount % = 25%

Marked price = 75% of X=90

=Rs.120

Required Ratio = 200 : 120 = 5 : 3

2) (e) Let Item D’s cost price be Rs.100

Profit % = Rs.12.5

So, selling price = Rs.112.5

Marked price = Rs.200

“Discount rate =”  ” 200-112.5″ /200 “×100= 43.75%”

Let Item B’s cost price be Rs.100

Profit % = Rs.12

So, selling price = Rs.112

Marked price = Rs.140

“Discount rate =”  ” 140-112″ /140 “×100= 20%”

“Required percentage = ”  43.75/20 “×100 = 218.75%”

3) (c) So, selling price = Rs.82.5

Marked price = Rs.120

“Discount rate =”  ” 120-82.5″ /120 “×100= 31.25%”

4) (e) Item B’s marked price =Rs.140

Item D’s marked price =Rs.200

Item E’s marked price =Rs.120

Let A’s  cost price be Rs.100

Profit%  = Rs.40%

So, selling price = Rs.140

Discount%  = 30%

Marked price = 70% of X=140

=Rs.200

Let C’s  cost price be Rs.100

Loss% = Rs.10%

So, selling price = Rs.90

Discount % = 25%

Marked price = 75% of X=90

=Rs.120

Let’s cost price be Rs.100

Item A’s Profit % = 40%

So, Item A’s selling price = Rs.140

Similarly,

Item B’s selling price = Rs.112

Item D’s selling price = Rs.112.5

Item C’s loss % = 10%

So, Item C’s selling price = Rs.90

Similarly,

Item D’s selling price = Rs.82.5

Difference = (140+200+120+200+120 )- (140+112+112.5+90+87.5)= Rs.238

5) (a) Let A’s  cost price be Rs.100

Now A’s

Profit%  = 20%

So, selling price = Rs.120

Discount%  = 30%

Marked price = 70% of X=120

=Rs.170(approximately)

Let C’s  cost price be Rs.100

Now C’s

Loss% = Rs.20

So, selling price = Rs.80

Discount % = 25%

Marked price = 75% of X= 80

=Rs.107( approximately)

Difference = 170-107= Rs.63

7) (a) Let the investment made by Raghu be 100x, so Mohit’s investment = 90x and rahul’s investment =108x

108x+90x  + 100x = 298x = 17880

X=60

So, Raghu investment = 100x = Rs.6000.

8) (d) Total commission in first month = Rs.3200

Total commission in second month = Rs.6400

Total commission in thired month = Rs. 9600

Total commission in fourth month = Rs.4800

“C’s share in the commission =”  4/16 of 3200+  5/16 of 6400+ 3/16 of 9600+ 5/16 “of 4800”

=800 + 2000 + 1800 + 1500 = Rs.6100

“C’s average monthly earnings = ”  “6100” /4 “= Rs.1525.”

9) (a) Final selling price of jeans in shop A = (900- 900×0.15)- (900-900×0.15)×0.15 = Rs. 650.25

Final selling price of jeans in shop B = (900-900×0.20)- (900-900×0.20)×0.10= Rs.648

Difference = Rs.2.25

10) (b) Sedimentation occurs when more than 20g of sugar is present in 100g of water.

Amount of sugar in 1kg of water = 70g

“Amount of water needed for sedimentation to start = ”  “70x×100″ /20 ” = 350g”

Amount of water that should evaporate = 1000-350 = 650g

“Time required for eveporation =”  ” 650″ /”32.5 ”  “= 20 hours.”
