Again the seventh and the sixth words occupy the fourth and fifth positions respectively and then the third, the fourth and the fifth words of the previous code are written in the same order in the pass-code for the next batch.

Answer» Solution I : S.P. = 252, Profit = 52 => C.P. = 252-52 = 200 Since, we cannot find discount and MARKED price. I alone is not sufficient. Similarly, II alone & III alone are insufficient. I & II : After discount, S.P. = 252, Profit = 52 => C.P. = 252-52 = 200 Without discount (Discount = 0 & M.P. = S.P.), Profit = 80=> M.P. = S.P. = 200+80 = 280 Thus, discount = 280-252 = 28 Discount % = $\frac{28}{280}*100 = 10\%$ Thus, I & II together are sufficient. I & III : After discount, S.P. = 252, Profit = 52 => C.P. = 252-52 = 200 Without discount (Discount = 0 & M.P. = S.P.),Profit % = 40% Profit = $\frac{40}{200}*100 = 80 M.P. = S.P. = 200+80 = 280 Thus, discount = 280-252 = 28 Discount % = $\frac{28}{280}*100 = 10\%$ Thus, I & III are sufficient together. |
