Answer» Marked price of one book = Rs. 160 Selling price after 25% discount = 160 × 0.75 = Rs. 120 Since he is GIVING 500 books for free, remaining books are 3000 And also he is giving 1 book free for PURCHASE of every 29 books, he will get price of 29 books after giving 30 books. Thus he will get price of 2900 books only; ∴ Selling price for 2900 books = 120 × 2900 = Rs. 348000 And Cost price of 3500 books = 3500 × 100 = Rs. 350000 ∴ Loss = 350000 - 348000 = Rs. 2000 |
