Answer 1

(1) 9/10 * 120 = 108 (opt.e)

(2) 5/6 * 540 = 450 ( opt. a)

(3) 47/50 * 1250 = 1175 (opt. b)

(4) 40% = 2/5 , s.p = 3/4 * 7 = 21/4

gain = (21/4 - 5) = 1/4 of c.p (opt. d)

(5) 12% = 3/25 , GAIN = 1/10 of c.p

22 units = 11/10 * 7660

1 unit = 383

25 units(m.p) = 25 × 383 = 9575(opt. c)

(6) 8% = 8/100 = 2/25

27 units = 810 , 1unit = 30

25 units = 25×30 = 750 (opt. b )
