Q:

Rahul went to purchase a Nokia mobile handset, the shopkeeper told him to pay 20% tax if he asked the bill. Rahul manages to get the discount of 5% on the actual saleprice of the mobile and he paid the shopkeeper Rs. 3325 without tax. Besides he manages to avoid to pay 20% tax on the already discounted price, what is the amount of discount that he has gotten?

A) 750	B) 375
C) 875	D) 525

Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 875

Explanation:

CP = 100, SP (with tax) =120

New SP = 100 - 5 = 95

Effective discount = 120 - 95 = 25

So, at SP of 95 ----> discount = 25

and at SP of 3325 -----> discount = $\frac{25}{95} \times 3325 = 875$

A) 116%	B) 166.66%
C) 60%	D) 100%

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 166.66%

Let the cost price of 1-liter pure milk be Re.1, then

$\{\begin{cases} 6 l i t e r s (m i l k) \to C . P = R s . 6 \\ 2 l i t e r s (w a t e r) \to C . P = R s . 0 \end{cases} \to C P = R s . 6 o n l y$

8 litre mixture =>

SP => 8 x 2 = Rs. 16

Profit % = $\frac{16 - 6}{6} x 100 = \frac{1000}{6} = 166.66 %$
