Question

A shopkeeper makes a profit of 5% by selling goods for Rs. 315 to earn a profit of 25. How many items are sold for Rs. 515​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let SP of 1 article be 1 Re.

SP = CP + PROFIT

5 * PRICE OF ARTICLE = CP + 1 * PRICE OF ARTICLE

5 * 1 = CP + 1*1

CP = 4

PROFIT = 1

1/4 = 25%

In short

SP = 5

Profit = 1

CP becomes 4

1/4 = 25%

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Profit=5%

315$ =25 goods

1$ =25

315 goods

515=25x515

315
