    35
    9. Total sales of P = 30 + 30 + 30 + 40 + 50 +

    Shortcut (Allegation method):


    1st article
    2nd article
    8% (profit)
    2%( loss)

    = Rs.35,360
    12. Average Marks =

    Total of 16 numbers = 328 + 200 = 528
    But there are only 15 numbers. 8th number
    has come twice.
    8th number = 528 480 = 48
    Shortcut:
    Middle number (8th)
    = 32 + [8 (41 32) + 8 (25 32)]

    32 + (72 56)
    = 48
    14. Let the cost price of second article be Rs.x

    x = Rs.280

    4% (overall profit)
    4 (2)
    84
    =6
    =4
    Ratio between 1st and 2nd article = 6 : 4 = 3 : 2
