Question

A shopkeeper buys 80 articles for 2400 and sells them for a profit of 16%. find the sp in on article.

Answer 1

CP of 80 Articles is Rs. 2400

CP of 1 Article is Rs. 2400/80 = Rs. 30

P% = 16%

SP = CP + CP*(P%/100)

SP = 30 + 30 * (16/100)

SP = Rs. 34.5 on one Article

SP for 80 Articles is 80*34.5 = Rs. 2760

Answer 2

Answer:

CP ( 80) = 2400

Profit (80) = 16%

=16/100×2400

= 384 profit

SP = CP- Profit

2400+384

= 2784

SP of 80 articles = 2784

= 1 article= 2784/ 80

= 34.8 rupees
