Question

A buys an article for Rs 650 and sells it to B at a profit of 20%. B sells it to C at a loss of 20%. what does C pay for it?

Answer 1

Cost price when "A" buys an article = 650

Sells it to "B" at Profit Percentage = 20 % .


Selling Price = Cost Price + Profit

= 650 + (650 x 20%)

= 650 + 130

= 780 .

So , "A" sells it to "B" at Rs 780 .


Cost Price when "B" buys an article = 780

Loss % = 20 %

Selling Price = Cost Price - Loss

= 780 - (780 x 20%)

= 780 - 156

= 624 .


So , "B" sells it to "C" at Rs 624 .


Cost Price when "C" buys an article = Rs 624.


Hence :

"C" PAYS FOR AN ARTICLE = Rs 624 .
