Solution:
S.P.=Tk.54000,
Gainearned=20%.
So,C.P.=Tk.(100*54000/120)=Tk.45000.

Follow us on:

Now,S.P.=Tk.45000andloss=10%.
Then,C.P.=Tk.(100*45000/90)=Tk.50000.
Question02:Adealersellsaradioatagainof10%.Ifhehadboughtitat
10%lessandsolditforTk.132less,hewouldhavestillgained10%.The
costpriceoftheradiois:
Solution:
LetC.P.=Tk.x.
Then,S.P.=Tk.(100*x/100)=Tk.11x/10.
New,C.P.=(90*x/100)=9x/10Tk.
So,11x/1099x/100=132
Or,x=1200
So,C.P.=Tk.1200.
Question 03: When the price of fans was reduced by 20%, the number of
fanssoldincreasedby40%,whatwastheeffectonthesalesinTaka?
Solution:
Consider,originalcostofeachisTk.100andnumberoriginallysoldis100.
Originalsaleproceed=Tk.(100*100)=Tk.10000
Newsaleproceed=Tk.(80*140)=Tk.11200.
Increase%=(1200*100/10000)%=12%.
Question 04: When the price of a toy was increased by 30%, the number
oftoyssoldfellby30%.Whatistheeffectonthesaleoftheshop?
Solution:
LetoriginalcostofeachtoyisTk.100andnumbersoldis100.
Then,saleproceed=Tk.(100*100)=Tk.10000
Newsaleproceed=Tk.(130*70)=Tk.9100
Decrease%=(900*100/10000)%=9%

Solution:
Gain=(S.P.of100bananas)(C.P.of100bananas)
(S.P.of20)=(S.P.of100)(C.P.of100)
So,S.P.of80=C.P.of100.
LetC.P.ofeach=Tk.1.

Question 07: By selling an article for Tk. 144, a man loses 1/7 of his
outlay.BysellingitforTk.168,hisgainorlosspercentis:

RECENTUPDATES
Solution:
LetC.P.=Tk.x.
Then,loss=Tk.(x/7)
S.P.=(C.P.)(Loss)=(xx/7)=Tk.6x/7.
So,6x/7=144
X=(144*7/6)=168
Thus,C.P=Tk.168.
IfS.P.isTk.168,thengainpercentis0%
Question 08: When the price of a toy was increased by 20%, the number
of toys sold was decreased by 15%. Determine the real effect on the
salesoftheshop?
Solution:
Supposetheoriginalcostofeachtoy=Tk.100andnumberoriginallysold=100.
So,Originalsaleproceed=100*100=Tk.10000
Newsaleproceed=Tk.(120*85)=Tk.10200
So,Increased%=(200*100/10000)%=2%
Question 09: By selling 45 oranges for Tk. 40, Mr. Rasel khan loses 20%.
HowmanyshouldhesellforTk.24soastogain20%inthetransaction?
Solution:
S.P.oforange=Tk.(40/45)=Tk.8/9
80%ofC.P.=8/9
Or,C.P.=(8/9*100/80)=Tk.10/9
S.P.=(120%ofTk.10/9)=Tk.4/3.
ForTk.4/3,hesells1orange.
Then,forTk.24,Hewouldsell(3*24/4)=18oranges.

SolutionofProfit&LossrelatedcomplicatedProblemsBCSMathSchool

LossofB=10%
S.P.ofB=90%ofTk.11000=Tk.9900.
Thus,C.P.ofA=Tk.9900
So,Agets[(10%ofTk.10000)+(100009900)]=TK.1100
Question 11: A grocer of Dharmaghor Bazar sells rice at a profit of 10%
andusesweightswhichare20%lessthanthemarketweight.Whatisthe
totalgainearnedbythegrocer?
Solution:
Letusconsiderapacketofricemarked1kg.
Then,itsactualweight=(80%of1Kg)=0.8kg.
LetC.P.of1kgbeTk.x.
Then,C.P.of0.8kg=Tk.0.8x
Now,S.P.=110%ofC.P.of1kg=(110*x/100)=Tk.1.1x
Gain%=(0.3x*100/0.8x)%=37.5%
Question 12: Due to an increase of 30% in the price of eggs of a local
market of Shonirakra, 3 fewer eggs are available for Tk. 7.80. Determine
thepresentrateofeggsperdozen.
Solution:
LettheoriginalratebexTakaperegg.
NumberofeggsboughtforTk.7.80=780/x
Newrate=(130%ofx)Takaperegg=13x/10Takaperegg.
NumberofeggsboughtforTk.7.80=(780*10/13x)=600/x.
So,780/x600/x=3
Or,3x=180
Or,x=60
So,percentrate=(13*60/10)Takaperegg=78Takaperegg=Tk.9.36perdozen.
Question13:Ashopkeepersellstheofitsarticlesatagainof20%and
theremainingatcostprice.Hisrealgaininthetransactionis:
Solution:
LettotalC.P.ofallthearticles=Tk.100
C.P.of3/4thpart=Tk.(3*100/4)=Tk.75.
S.P.of3/4Thpart=TK.(120*75/100)=Tk.90
S.P.ofthpart=Tk.(1*100/4)=Tk.25.
TotalS.P.=Tk.(90+25)=Tk.115
Gain=15%
Question14:AretailerofShibrampurmarketbuysasewingmachineata
discountof15%andsellsitforTk.1955.Thus,hemakesaprofitof15%.
Now,determinetheamountofdiscount.
Solution:
Letusconsider,themarkedpricebeTk.x.
Discountavailedbytheretailer=15%ofTk.x.
C.P.ofthemachinebytheretailer=(x15%ofx)=TK.17x/20
So,15%of17x/20=195517x/20
So,51x/400+17x/20=1955
Or,x=2000
Discountreceivedbyretailer=(15%ofTk.2000)=Tk.300.

Then,S.P.=(90*x/100)=Tk.(9x/10)
NewC.P.=(80*x/100)=Tk.(4x/5)
Now,gain=40%.
So,NewS.P.=(140/100*4x/5)=Tk.(28x/25)
Then,28x/259x/10=55
Or,x=250.
C.P.=Tk.250.
Question16:AtwhatpricemustHanifsellamixtureof80kgsugaratTk.
6.75perkgwith120kgatTk.8perkgtogain20%?
Solution:
TotalC.P.of200kgofsugar=(80*6.75+120*8)=Tk.1500.
C.P.of1kg=Tk.(1500/200)
=TK.7.50.
Gainrequired=20%
So,S.P.of1kg=(120%ofTk.7.50)
=Tk.(120*7.50/100)
=Tk.9perkg.
