(4) Rs. 532 (5) None of these​

Answer 1

'A' sells an article, which costs him Rs 400, to B at a profit of 20%.

profit of A = 400 × 20/100 = ₹80

CP for B = 400 + 80 = ₹480

B then sells it to C, making a profit of 10% on the price he paid to A

Profit for B = 480 × 10/100 = ₹48

CP for C = 480 + 48 = ₹528

Thus C pays ₹528 to B

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

20%profit means

if CP is 100 SP will be 120

so for 500 sp will be 500x120/100

600 rs

now 10%profit means

if CP is 100 sp will be 110

so if CP for B is 600 Sp will be

600 x110/100

660

so correct ans is option 4. none of these
