Question

a shopkeeper buys 80 articles for 2400 and sell for profit of 16% find the selling price of one articles

Answer 1

$\huge{\bf{\underline{\red{Solution :}}}}$

Given,

• Cost Price of 80 articles = ₹2400
• Profit = 16%

Now we know that :

$\implies \boxed{\bold{SP = \frac{100 + profit}{100} \times CP}}$

$\implies \sf{\bold{\frac{100 + 16}{100} \times 2400}}$

$\implies \sf{\bold{116 \times 24}}$

$\implies \sf{\bold{Rs.2784 }}$

Therefore ,

Selling Price of 80 articles = ₹2784

∴Selling Price of 1 articles = 2784/80 = ₹34.80

So, SP of 1 articles = ₹34.80(Answer)

$\rule{200}2$

• Cost Price - The Price at which an article is bought is called CP .
• Selling Price - The Price at which an article sold is called SP.
• Profit - When the selling price of an article is more than its cost price so the article is said to be profit .
• Loss - When selling Price of an article is less than the Cost price so article is said to be Loss.
