Question

A dishonest shopkeeper promise to sell his goods at cp but uses 160 gm less weight from 1kg. Find his profit %

Answer 1

Hey.

Here is the answer.

Let the cp be rs. 100/kg

As he shells 160g less / kg

so, he sells 1000 - 160 g = 840 g only

As price of 1 kg is rs. 100

so, price of 0.840 kg = 0.840×100

= rs.84 = new cp or actual cp

New sp = rs. 100

So, profit = 100 - 84 = rs.16 /kg

so, % profit = 16/84 × 100 = 19.05 %

Thanks .
