प्रश्न

A shopkeeper buys 80 articles for Rs 2,400 and sells them for a profit of 16%. Find the selling price of one article.

उत्तर

It is given that the shopkeeper buys 80 articles for Rs 2,400

Cost of one article =  Rs `2400/80` = Rs 30

Profit percent = 16

Profit percent = `"Profit"/"C.P" xx 100`

16 = `"Profit"/"Rs 30" xx 100`

Profit = Rs `(16 xx 30)/10` = Rs . 4.80

Selling price of one article = C.P. + Profit = Rs (30 + 4.80) = Rs 34.80
