Test: Comparing Quantities- 1 - Question 2

Rohan bought a second hand refrigerator for Rs 2,500, then spent Rs 500 on its repairs and sold it for Rs 3,300. Find his loss or gain per cent.

Detailed Solution for Test: Comparing Quantities- 1 - Question 2

Cost of refrigerator = Rs 2500

Money spent on repairs = Rs 500

Total CP of refrigerator = Rs 2500 + 500 = Rs 3000

SP of refrigerator = Rs 3300

Since SP > CP, so profit ocurrs.

Now, profit = SP − CP = 3300 − 3000 = Rs 300

Test: Comparing Quantities- 1 - Question 3

A picnic is being planned in a school for Class VII. Girls are 60% of the total number of students and are 18 in number. Find the ratio of the number of girls to the number of boys in the class.

Detailed Solution for Test: Comparing Quantities- 1 - Question 3

Girls are 60% of the total number of students and are 18 in number.

Let say total students = T

Girls = (60/100)T

=> 18 = 3T/5

=> T = 30

Boys = 30 - 18  = 12

Ratio of Girls to boys = 18 : 12

=> 3 : 2

Test: Comparing Quantities- 1 - Question 4

During a sale, a shop offered a discount of 10% on the marked price of all the items. What would a customer have to pay for a pair of jeans marked at ₹ 1450 and two shirts marked at ₹ 850 each?

Detailed Solution for Test: Comparing Quantities- 1 - Question 4

Discount percentage = 10%

The marked price of a pair of jeans = ₹ 1450

Marked Price of a shirt = ₹ 850

(i) M.P. of a pair of jeans = C.P. of two jeans - Discount

(ii) M.P. of a shirt = C.P. of two shirts - Discount

Adding (i) and (ii) will give the amount he has to pay.

M.P of a pair of jeans = 1450

M.P of 2 shirts = 850 × 2 = 1700

Total M.P. = 1450 + 1700 = 3150

Discount on Total M.P =10% of 3150

= (10/100) × 3150

= 315

The amount customer has to pay is = Total M.P - Discount on total M.p

= 3150 - 315 = ₹ 2835
