Question

Aman sells a watch to bina at profit of 25% and bina sells it to juhil at a profit of 15%. If juhil paid bina ₹4600,what was the cost price of the watch for aman? If aman had directly solf the watch to juhil for the amount juhil paid bina,what woulf have been his profit percent?

Answer 1

Bina's S.P.=4600
Gain%=15
therefore Bina's C.P=(S.P.*100)/(100+Gain%)
=>(4600*100)/(100+15)
=>460000/115
=>4000
now Bina's C.P=Aman's S.P.

therefore Aman's C.P=(S.P.*100)/(100+Gain%)
=>(4000*100)/(100+25)
=>400000/125
=>3200

Aman's C.P.=3200
suppose Aman sold directly to Bina for 4600
then profit=4600-3200
=>1400
profit Percentage=(PROFIT*100)/C.P.
=>(1400*100)/3200
=>140000/3200
=>43.75%

Ans. Aman's C.P.=3200, Profit %=43.75%

Answer 2

Answer:Bina's S.P.=4600

Gain%=15

therefore Bina's C.P=(S.P.*100)/(100+Gain%)

=>(4600*100)/(100+15)

=>460000/115

=>4000

now Bina's C.P=Aman's S.P.

therefore Aman's C.P=(S.P.*100)/(100+Gain%)

=>(4000*100)/(100+25)

=>400000/125

=>3200

Aman's C.P.=3200

suppose Aman sold directly to Bina for 4600

then profit=4600-3200

=>1400

profit Percentage=(PROFIT*100)/C.P.

=>(1400*100)/3200

=>140000/3200

=>43.75%
