Let C.P.= Rs. 100.
Then, Profit = Rs. 320,
S.P. = Rs. 420.

New C.P. = 125% of Rs. 100 = Rs. 125
New S.P. = Rs. 420.

Profit = Rs. (420 - 125) = Rs. 295

Required percentage = (295/420) * 100
= 70%(approx)

Those are stairs which goes up and down without moving.

Let the speed of the train be 'S' kmph

From the given data,

Distance = Length of train = D = 200 mts = 200 x 18/5 kms

Time = 10 sec

given speed of the motorcycler = 12 kmph

Relative speed as they are moving in the same direction = (S - 12) kmph

$$\begin{gathered} (S- 12) = 200 x 18515 \\ S - 12 = 48 \\ S = 60 kmph \\ \end{gathered}$$

Hence, the speed of the train = S = 60 kmph

Now,

Let the speed of the jeep be 'x' kmph

$$\begin{gathered} 60 - x = 200 x 18520 \\ 60 - x = 36 \\ x = 60 - 36 \\ x = 24 kmph \end{gathered}$$

Therefore, the speed of the jeep = x = 24 kmph.

Time from 12 p.m. on Tuesday to 2 p.m. on the following Tuesday = 7 days 2 hours.
= 170 hours.
The watch gains = (2 + 4 x 4/5) min
= 34/5 min. in 170 hrs.
Now, 34/5 min are gained in 170 hrs.
Then, 2 min are gained in (170 x 5/34 x 2) hrs.
Watch is correct after 2 days 2 hrs after 12 p.m. on Tuesday, i.e., it will be correct at 2 p.m. on Thursday.
