Originally, he had: Answer:- 4 Explanation :- Sold Apples = 40% o total apples Video Explanation
1. Rs 8.81
2. Rs 9.81
3. Rs 10.81
4. Rs 11.81
5. None of these
New SP (Having profit of 5%) = (9/80) * 105
=> Rs. 11.81
1. 4%
2. 5%
3. 6%
4. 7%
5. None of these
Profit %age = (164.36*100/2400) = 6.84 % = 7% approx
1. 130%
2. 140%
3. 150%
4. 160%
5. None of these
Therefore , SP=120
New SP after Doubling the price=120*2=240
Profit =240 – 100= 140
1. 12%
2. 30%
3. 50%
4. 60%
5. None of these
Therefore,
CP of 8 pens = Re 8 & CP of 12 pens = Re12
Selling price of 8 pens = 12
Profit = SP(8 pens) – CP(8 pens)=12-8=4
Profir %age = (4/8)*100 = 50%
1. 588 apples
2. 600 apples
3. 672 apples
4. 700 apples

Remaining Apples = 60% of total Apples
60% of total apples = 420
Total apples = (420/60)*100=700 Apples
