Answer 1

Answer:

Coast Price for D is Rs. 411.43

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Cost Price of Article that A & B purchased = x

A & B sell articles to C

Selling Price of each article = Rs. 240

A made p% profit on Cost Price.

B made q% profit on Selling Price.

C sell a article to D at p% profit.

q% = 41 2/3 %

According to the question,

41\frac{2}{3}=\frac{240-x}{240}\times10041

×24=(240−x)10

240 - x = 100

x = 140

profit percentage of A , p% = \frac{240-100}{140}\times100=\frac{100\times10}{14}=71\frac{6}{14}

SP for C = CP+\frac{\frac{1000}{14}}{100}\times CP=240+\frac{1000\times240}{1400}=240+\frac{1200}{7}=411.43CP+
