From given data,

2x/5 + 34x/100 + 52 + 52 = x

Q:

A shopkeeper sells two articles at Rs.1000 each, making a profit of 20% on the first article and a loss of 20% on the second article. Find the net profit or loss that he makes?

A) 2%	B) 4%
C) 3%	D) 2.5%

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 4%

Explanation:

SP of first article = 1000

Profit = 20%

CP = $\frac{100}{100 + P} \times S P$ = 5000/6 = 2500/3

SP of second article = 1000

Loss = 20%

CP = $\frac{100}{100 - L} \times S P$ = 5000/4 = 1250

Total SP = 2000

Total CP = $\frac{2500}{3}$ + 1250 = 6250/3

CP is more than SP, he makes a loss.

Loss = CP-SP = (6250/3)- 2000 = 250/3

Loss Percent = $\frac{\frac{250}{3}}{\frac{6250}{3}} \times 100$ = 4%

Q:

In a class 60% of the students pass in English and 45% pass in Hindi. If 25% of them pass in both subjects, what percentage of the students fail in both the subjects?

A) 20%	B) 25%
C) 30%	D) 15%

Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 20%

Explanation:

Percentage of students passed in English = 60%

Percentage of students passed in Hindi = 45%

Percentage of students passed in both subjects = 25%

ATQ,

Percentage of students passed in only English = 60 - 25 = 35%

Percentage of students passed in only Hindi = 45 - 25 = 20%

Therefore, Percentage of students failed = 100 - (35 + 25 + 20)

= 100 - 80 = 20%.
