Question

Ram sells his goods 25% cheaper than Shyam and 25% dearer than Bram. How much percentage 1S Bram's goods cheaper than Shyam's? ​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets say shyam sells at 100,

Since Ram sells 25% cheaper than Shyam,

Therefore Ram sells at less than 25% of100 or 75 rs.

Ram sells 25% dearer than Bram or 125% of Ram =100% of Bram or

125% of x (say x price of bram )=75rs.

or 100% of x =60rs.

hence price of bram is 60rs.

now Bram's good is cheaper than Shyam's as (100-60)x100/100% or 40%.

Hence Brams Good is 40% cheaper than that of Shyam's good.
