A) Rs. 620 B) Rs. 654
C) Rs. 725 D) Rs. 747
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Rs. 620

Explanation:

Let the C.P of one item is Rs. P
and that of other is Rs. (7500 - P)

According to the data given
C.P = S.P
=> Px(116/100) + (7500-P)x(86/100) = 7500
=> 30P = 105000
=> P = 3500

Required difference between selling prices
= Rs. [(3500/100) x 116] - [(4000/100) x 86]
= 4060-3440

A) 105555 B) 106665
C) 106656 D) 108333
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 106656

The number of arrangements of 4 different digits taken 4 at a time is given by 4P4 = 4! = 24.All the four digits will occur equal number of times at each of the position,namely ones,tens,hundreds,thousands.

 

 

 

Thus,each digit will occur 24/4 = 6 times in each of the position.The sum of digits in one's position will be 6 x (1+3+5+7) = 96.Similar is the case in ten's,hundred's and thousand's places.

 

 

 

Therefore,the sum will be 96 + 96 x 10 + 96 x 100 + 96 x 100 = 106656
