Q7. The cost price of 20 articles is the same as the selling price of x articles. If the profit is 25%, then the value of x is:
Answer : Option B
Explaination / Solution:

Let C.P. of each article be Re. 1 C.P. of x articles = Rs. x.

20 - xx 100 = 25
x

 2000 - 100x = 25x

Q10. Direction:There are five shoe companies: Puma, Nike, Adidas, Reebok and Bata. In the following line graphs, the first line graph shows the marked up price with respect to the cost price of the shoes and the second line graph shows the discount percentage given on the marked up price with the help of the given information answer the following questions.

If the cost price of the Puma shoe and Adidas shoe is equal then the selling price of Puma shoe is how much % more than the selling price of Adidas shoe.
Answer : Option A
Explaination / Solution:

Let the cost price of Puma be INR x 
Marked up price of Puma is 150% with respect to C.P. of Puma shoe 
⇒M.P = 150% of x 
⇒M.P. = INR 3x/2
Discount given is 25% on the marked price 
As we know, Selling price = M.P. – discount 
⇒S.P. = 3x/2 – 25% of 3x/2 

⇒S.P. of Puma shoe = INR 9x/8 = INR 1.125x 
According to given information: 
The cost price of Adidas is also INR x 
Marked up price of Adidas is 160% with respect to C.P. of Adidas shoe 
⇒M.P = 160% of x 
⇒M.P. = INR 8x/5 
Discount given is 50% on the marked price 
As we know, Selling price = M.P. – discount 
⇒S.P. = 8x/5 – 50% of 8x/5 
⇒S.P. = 4x/5 
⇒S.P. of Adidas shoe =INR 0.8x 
Profit=.325x
∴Required percentage = 0.325*100/.0.8= 40.625
