Answer 1

Answer:

A GET, 5% PROFIT FROM B

B GET 20% PROFIT FROM C

C GET 25% PROFIT FROM D

means actually D paid 50% extra price

of real value...

here ,

A + B + C = D

( if A not sales directly to D then )

5% + 20% +25% = 50%

hence D paid 50% extra price

of real value...

I hope it helps you..

Answer 2

$\huge\star\:\:{\orange{\underline{\purple{\mathcal{Question}}}}}$

A sells some articles to B at a profit of 5%.

B sells the same to C at a profit of 20% and C sells them to D at a profit of 25%. What would A's percentage of profit be, if he sold the articles directly to D, at the price D paid for

them ?

$\huge\star\:\:{\orange{\underline{\pink{\mathcal{Answer}}}}}$

According to the statement . It is given that

$\mapsto\:A\:gets\:5\: percent\: profit\:from\: B$

$\mapsto\:B\:gets\:20\: percent\: profit\:from\: C$

$\mapsto\:C\:gets\:25\:percent\: profit\:from\: D$

$\mathcal{\pink{\underbrace{\purple{Justification\::- }}}}$

Some articles were manufactured and reached A . Now A sells it to B by gaining 5% profit . Later on the same articles were sold by B to C by a profit amount of 20% . And at last C sold it to D by keeping 25% profit . Here D suffered a loss by paying 50% extra cost of the same articles . If it was directly sold to D the loss wouldn't have been this much .

As mentioned in the Question .

What would be A's amount of gain if we sells the product directly to D at the same cost it recieved earlier ?

Answer : Profit gained by A + B + C = Extra cost payed by D

= 5 + 20 + 25 % = D

= 25 + 25 % = D

= 50% = D

Hence , A would have a profit of 50% and so does D will suffer the loss of 50% .
