Directions : Each of the following questions is followed by three statements I, II and III. Find out whether the data given in each statement is sufficient to answer the questions.
What is the ratio between the marked price of two identical items, P and Q, which had been purchased at the same price?
I. Item P was sold at a profit of 20%, while item Q was sold at a loss of 10%.
II. Item P was sold at a discount of 4%. The percentage by which Item Q’s cost price been marked up is 2.5 times the profit % earned on selling item P.
III. The overall profit earned on selling items P and Q was 5%.
Only I and II.
All I, II and III.
Any two of the three.
Only II and III.
The information provided in all three statements are not sufficient.
- Statement I: Item P has a profit of 20%, while Item Q has a loss of 10%. This information gives us the relationship between their selling prices, but not directly about their marked prices.
- Statement II: Item P was sold at a 4% discount. Item Q’s marked up percentage is 2.5 times the profit percentage on P. This gives a direct relation for calculating marked prices ratio.
- Statement III: The combined profit on selling P and Q is 5%. This provides overall profitability but doesn’t directly relate marked prices.
- Option 1: Only I and II. ?? Correct Answer
Using Statements I and II, the information about profits, losses, discounts, and markup can help derive the marked price ratio of P and Q.
- Option 2: All I, II, and III.
While this may sound inclusive, statement III doesn't give additional useful data for marked prices.
- Option 3: Any two of the three.
Not every combination of two statements is enough. Specifically, statements I and II together suffice.
- Option 4: Only II and III.
These statements together do not provide a sufficient solution.
- Option 5: The information provided in all three statements are not sufficient.
Results can be found using only the first two statements.
