Cost Price for peaches is 100 rs.

Selling Price for peaches is 120 rs.

Then profit gained by shopkeeper is ; P = SP – CP

P = 120 – 100 = Rs. 20/-

Cost Price for peaches is 100 rs.

Selling Price for peaches is 125 rs.

Then profit gained by shopkeeper is ; P = SP – CP

P = 125 – 100 = Rs. 25/-

We know, Profit percentage = (Profit /Cost Price) x 100

Therefore, Profit percentage = (25/100) x 100 = 25%

Cost Price of the fan is Rs.1300

Loss percentage is 15%

As we know, Loss percentage = (Loss/Cost Price) x 100

15 = (Loss/1300) x 100

Therefore, Loss = 195 rs.

As we know,

Loss = Cost Price – Selling Price

So, Selling Price = Cost Price – Loss

= 1300 – 195

Selling Price = Rs. 1105/-

MP x (100 – 5) /100 = 70

MP x (95/100) = 70

MP = (70 x 100)/95

MP = Rs. 73.68

Total C.P. = Rs. 42000

Total S.P. = Rs. 60000

Profit% = (18000/42000) x 100 = 42.85%

SP of 1m of cloth = 7500/70 = Rs. 107.14

CP of 1m of cloth = SP of 1m of cloth - profit on 1m of cloth

= Rs. 107.14 - Rs. 20 = Rs. 87.14

SP = 1000, Profit = 20%

CP = (SP)x[100/(100+P)]

= 1000 x [100/120] = 833.33

Loss = 20% = 20% of 833.33 = Rs. 166.66

SP = CP - Loss = 833.33 - 166.66 = Rs. 666.66 = Rs. 667

Total CP per shirt = 400 + 1500/150 + 1.50 + 350/150 = Rs. 413.83

SP = CP[(100 + profit%)/100]

= 413.83 x  [(100 + 25)/100] = Rs. 517.28

Loss% = (7/14)^2 = 1/4% = 0.25%

Let C.P = Rs. X

400 – X = X – 350

2X = 750 or X = 375
