1. The profit earned by selling an article of Tk. 900 is double the loss incurred when the same article is sold for Tk. 450. At what price should the article be sold make 25% profit?

  • A. Tk. 600
  • B. Tk. 600
  • C. Tk. 600
  • D. Tk. 600

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Hints: Let cost price be tk. x

900 - x = 2 ( x - 450)

x = 600 tk

Cost price = 600 gain required is 25%

Sells price = [ (100 + 25) ×600] /100

= Tk. 750
