A merchant has 1000 kg of sugar, part of which he sells at 8% and the remaining at 18% profit. He gains 14% on the whole. Find the quantity of sugar that he sold at 18% profit.

  • A. 400kg
  • B. 400kg
  • C. 400kg
  • D. 400kg

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

ধরি, 18% profit - এ বিক্রি করে x Kg

8% profit এ বিক্রি করে ( 1000 - x) Kg

(1000 - x) × 8/100 + x × 18/100 = 1000 এর 14/100

8000 - 8x + 18x = 14000

10x = 14000 - 8000

x = 6000/10

x = 600
