Percentages & Profit Loss - 5 | CAT Preparation 2024 | Arithmetic | Quantitative Aptitude

[@aryanbansal5692]

I think in 1st question, discount is asked, not in percentage but in rupees.. so we cannot put x as 50% by options as options are in rupees. Also, if percentage discount is asked then it is 2x/5 not x percent. So 2x/5 we have to put as 50. Big blunder in 1st question. The amount of discount given is 300rs. and in percentage it is 20%, which is nowhere in the options. Everything will be fine if the question is "Find X?"

[@Rudrakshvora]

Finally someone said this

[@RajveerAroraA]

exactly my case. the answer should be 300 rs i guess and not 50%

[@skarde6969]

got the comment I needed.

[@skarde6969]

@@RajveerAroraA yep it is 300 with discount percentage as 20

[@bazinggaaa5843]

Was searching for this comment. 1500 is the mark up price after solving with using x=50 and then 20% of that should be 300. Even if discount is asked in percentage, it should be 20%

1st question has wrong language. The question should be "Find the value of x (the mark up percentage) which gives answers as x = 50 %" Currently, the question asks value of DISCOUNT which is 2/5x, which is 20 % , which is not mentioned in options

[@Ranjithsaravanan02]

In the last question discussed in the above video, Shopkeeper - 800 gm instead of 1kg weight Markup Percentage 40% Discount 40% Then Profit% = ? We got the final answer as 5%. If that is the case let us assume CP as 100. Then with 5% profit SP comes out to be 105. Calculating MP based on discount and SP we get MP as 175. From this we can say that MP% is 75. The statement lies contradictory. And also the other doubt which I have is that, how SP and MP are considered to be same in this example? Hope somebody helps, Thank You :)

[@pritiprakashsingh5819]

For the oranges question how the MP became 15 after the MP% was halved

[@itssaurabh18]

earlier we got MP as Rs.20 and the CP was Rs.10. The difference between CP and MP is of Rs.10 which is 100% of CP. Now ATQ, Mark-up % is halved , that is by 50%. Thus, we can say that the new MP is Rs.15 (Rs.10 the CP plus Rs.5 MP.
