The PROFIT shares of the TWO are PROPORTIONAL to the weighted average of investment and time.
Sunetra invested 50000 for 3 years and Nikhil invested 80000 for 2.5 years.

Hence, the RELATIVE RATIO is 50000*36 : 80000*30 = 180:240 = 3:4

Total profit is 24500.
Hence, Sunetra's share in it is 3/7*24500 = 10500

Solution

Let the CP of the ARTICLE be X.

Loss % = (CP-SP)/CP = (x-6384)/x = 0.3

1 - 6384/x = 0.3

x = 9120

Profit % = (SP-CP)/CP

0.3 = (SP-9120)/9120

SP = 9120*1.3 = RS 11,856

Solution

Let COST price of an ARTICLE = $Rs.$ $100x$

If Selling price = Rs 960

=> PROFIT % = $\frac{960-100x}{100x} \times 100=20$

=> $960-100x=20x$

=> $20x+100x=120x=960$

=> $x=\frac{960}{120}=8$

Thus, cost price of 1 article = $100 \times 8 = Rs.$ $800$

If selling price = Rs. 825

$\therefore$ Profit % = $\frac{825-800}{800} \times 100$

= $\frac{25}{8} = 3.125\%$

=> Ans - (A)

Solution

Cost PRICE of both A and B be X.
SP of A = 1.14 CP of A
SP of B = CP of B + 4290
Net profit after selling both BIKES is 20%
1.2 (X+X) = SP of A +SP of B
1.2 (X+X)=1.14 CP of A + CP of B + 4290 = 1.14X + X + 4290
2.4X = 2.14 X + 4290
0.26 X =4290
X = 16,500
Option A is the correct ANSWER.

Solution

Going by options , option (A)20(38-34.5) +20(36-32.4) = 142
option (B)30(37-34.5) +40(33-28.6) = 251
option (C)20(40-28.6) +40(38-32.4) = 452

So , option (C) gives more gain.
