9.
By selling a bicycle for Rs. 4275, a shopkeeper loses 5%. For how much should he sell it to have a profit of 5%?

10.
If the selling price of a LED TV is equal to \(\frac{5}{4}\) of its cost price, then find the gain / profit percentage.

1.
Cost of the food = Rs. 350
Extra 5% GST is equally shared by Central and State Governments at 2.5% each
∴ CGST = SGST = 350 x \(\frac { 2.5 }{ 100 } \) = Rs. 8.75
2.
Let the number of eggs bought by her be x.
Then, Cost Price = \(\frac { 18 }{ 4 } \times x= \frac { 9x }{ 2 } \)
Selling Price = Rs.\(\frac { 24 }{ 5 } \times x=\frac { 24x }{ 5 } \)
∴ Gain = S.P – C.P = \( \frac { 24x }{ 5 } -\frac { 9x }{ 2 } \)
= \(\frac { 48x-45x }{ 10 } =\frac { 3x }{ 10 } \)
Given, gain = Rs. 90
That is,\(\frac { 3x }{ 10 } \) = Rs. 90
∴ x = \(\frac { 90\times 10 }{ 3 } \) = 300
3.
Let the marked price of an article be Rs. 100.
First discount of 25% = 100 x \(\frac { 25 }{ 100 } \)= Rs. 25
∴ Price aft er fi rst discount = 100 − 25 = Rs. 75.
Second discount of 20% = 75 ×\(\frac { 20 }{ 100 } \) = Rs. 25.
∴ Price aft er second discount = 75 − 15 = Rs. 60.
Net selling price = Rs. 60.
∴ Single discount equivalent to two given successive discounts = (100-60)% = 40%.
4.
Given,
Discount = Marked Price –Selling Price
= 1060 – 901
= Rs. 159
∴ Discount = \(\frac { 159 }{ 1060 } \)× 100%
= 15%
5.
Marked price = Rs. 550 and Discount = 8%
∴ Discount = \(\frac { 8 }{ 100 } \)x 550 = Rs. 44
∴ Selling Price = Marked price – Discount
= Rs. 550 − 44
= Rs. 506
∴ The selling price of the tube light is Rs. 506
6.
Let the C.P of one strawberry box be Rs. x.
Then C.P of 20 strawberry boxes = 20 x and
S.P of 20 strawberry boxes = C.P of 16 strawberry boxes = 16 x
Thus, S.P < C.P, hence there is a loss.
Loss = C.P –S.P = 20 x − 16 x = 4 x
∴ Loss % =\(\left( \frac { Loss }{ C.P } \times 100 \right) \)%
=\(\left( \frac { 4x }{ 20x } \times 100 \right) \)%
= 20 %
7.
Total C.P of the car
= C.P + Overhead Expenses
= 24000 + 15000 +8500
= Rs. 263500
S.P = Rs. 258230
As S.P < C.P , there is a loss.
∴ Loss % = \(\left( \frac { loss }{ C.P } \times 100 \right) %\)%
= \(\left( \frac { 263500-258230 }{ 263500 } \times 100 \right) %\)%
= \(\left( \frac { 5270 }{ 263500 } \times 100 \right) %\)%
= 2%
∴ Loss percentage = 2%
8.
Total C.P of the washing machine
= C.P + Overhead Expenses
= 16150 + 1350 = Rs. 17500
S.P = Rs. 19250
Therefore, we find S.P > C.P.
Gain % = \(\left( \frac { Gain }{ C.P } \times 100 \right) %\)% = \(\left( \frac { 19250-17500 }{ 17500 } \times 100 \right) %\)
=\(\frac { 1750 }{ 17500 } \times 100\) = 10%
9.
S.P of the bicycle = Rs. 4275
Loss = 5%
∴ C.P =\(\frac { 100 }{ 100-loss% } \times S.P\)
= \(\frac { 100 }{ 95 } \times 4275\)
= Rs. 4500
Now,
C.P = Rs. 4500 and the desired profi t = 5%
∴ Desired S.P = \(\frac { 100+gain% }{ 100 } \times C.P\)
=\(\frac { 100+5 }{ 100 } \times 4500\)
= 105 x 45
= Rs. 4725
Hence, the desired selling price is Rs. 4725.
10.
Let the C.P of the LED TV be rs x.
∴ S.P = \(\frac { 5 }{ 4 } \)x
Profit = S.P – C.P = \(\frac { 5 }{ 4 } \)x - x = \(\frac { x }{ 4 } \)
∴Profit % =\(\left( \frac { Profit }{ C.P } \times 100 \right) %\)
=\(\left( \frac { { x }/{ 4 } }{ x } \times 100 \right) %\)
=\(\left( \frac { 1 }{ 4 } \times 100 \right) %\) = 25%
