Given below are two quantities named A and B. Based on the given information, you have to determine the relation between the two quantities. You should use the given data and your knowledge of Mathematics to choose between the possible answers.Quantity A: A computer is marked at Rs. 10000. Find the cost price of the computer if the shopkeeper earns 20% profit even after giving two successive discounts of 10% and 20%.Quantity B: Rs. 50001. Quantity A > Quantity B2. Quantity A < Quantity B3. Quantity A ≥ Quantity B4. Quantity A ≤ Quantity B5. Quantity A = Quantity B or No relation.

Answer» Correct Answer - Option 1 : Quantity A > Quantity B

Quantity A:

Given the marked price of computer is Rs. 10000;

Two successive discounts of 10% and 20% are given;

∴ Selling price of the computer = 10000 × 0.90 × 0.80 = Rs. 7200

∵ The shopkeeper earns 20% profit;

∴ Cost price of the computer = 7200/1.2 = Rs. 6000

Quantity B:

Rs. 5000

Quantity A > Quantity B
