What is the cost price of the book?


A. After allowing a discount of 18% on printed price shopkeeper charges Rs 516.60 for it.

B. If he had not allowed any discount, he would have a profit of 25%.

Options:
A) Any two of them   
B) A and Either B or C
C) Any one of them   
D) All together is required
E) None of these
Solution:
Ans: (b)

St. A MP = \(516.6\times\cfrac{100}{82}\ \ = \ \ 100 = 630 \ \ Rs. \)

 

St. B = CP = \(630\times\cfrac{100}{125} \ \ = \ \ 504 \ \ Rs.\)

St. C = 10% discount SP= \(630-63 \ \ = \ \ 567 \ \ Rs.\)

 

CP = \(567\times\cfrac{100}{112.5} \ \ = \ \ 504 \ \ Rs.\)

So using St. A with B or C use can find CP
