Answer: Answer Open in answr app Open_in_app Correct option is B Rs. 18; 18.75% Let the list price of the article be Rsx So, the retailer bought it from the wholesaler at (100−20)=80 % of x=Rs.0.8x And the retailer sold it at (100−5)=95 % of x=Rs.0.95x Given, 0.95x=Rs114 =>x=Rs120 So, for the retailer, C.P..=Rs0.8x=Rs.0.8×120=Rs96 And given SP=Rs.114 =>Profit=S.P.−C.P.=Rs.114−Rs.96=Rs.18 Hence, profit % = C.P. S.P.−C.P. ×100= 96 18 ×100=18.75 % Reply

Correct option is
B
Rs. 18; 18.75%
Let the list price of the article be Rsx
So, the retailer bought it from the wholesaler at (100−20)=80 % of x=Rs.0.8x
And the retailer sold it at (100−5)=95 % of x=Rs.0.95x
Given, 0.95x=Rs114
=>x=Rs120
So, for the retailer,
C.P..=Rs0.8x=Rs.0.8×120=Rs96
And given SP=Rs.114
=>Profit=S.P.−C.P.=Rs.114−Rs.96=Rs.18
Hence, profit % =
C.P.
S.P.−C.P.
×100=
96
18
×100=18.75 %
