Q. Arun bought toffees at 6 for a rupee. How many for a rupee he should sell to gain 20% ?
✅ Correct Answer: (C)
5
Explanation: You can go through options.
CP = 100 / 6 = 16.66 paisa
SP = 100 / 5 = 20 paisa
Profit (%) = [( 20 - 16.66 ) / 16.66 ] X 100
= [ 3.33 /16.66 ] X 100
= ( 1 / 5 ) X 100 = 20%
Hence, option (c) is correct.
CP = 100 / 6 = 16.66 paisa
SP = 100 / 5 = 20 paisa
Profit (%) = [( 20 - 16.66 ) / 16.66 ] X 100
= [ 3.33 /16.66 ] X 100
= ( 1 / 5 ) X 100 = 20%
Hence, option (c) is correct.
