A dealer bought a product for Rs. 6000, marked its price 55% above the cost price and sold it at successive discounts of 20% + ___%. The shopkeeper who bought the product marked its price 50% above the cost price and sold it at a discount of 25%, thereby earning a profit of Rs. ___.
Which of the following options satisfies the two blanks in the question?
A. 10, 837
B. 15, 790.5
C. 20, 748
D. 25, 697.5
A, B & C
A, B & D
A, C & D
B, C & D
All four
- Initially, the dealer bought a product for Rs. 6000.
- Marked Price = 6000 + 55% of 6000 = Rs. 9300.
- After the first 20% discount, the price = 9300 - 20% of 9300 = Rs. 7440.
- Let the second discount be x%. The shopkeeper’s cost price = 7440 - x% of 7440.
- The shopkeeper marked the price 50% above cost price and sold at 25% discount.
- The selling price (with marked price 50% above) = 7440 * (1.5) * (0.75).
- Solving gives us profit and discounts satisfying conditions.
- Option A: Final DP is not a whole number.
- Option B: Profit = Rs. 790.5 fits; x = 15%.
- Option C: Profit doesn’t match.
- Option D: Profit = Rs. 697.5 fits for x = 25%.
Therefore, Option:2, A, B & D is correct.
