LCM of 7 and 8 is 56. The CP of 56 pencils at the rate of 7 for Rs.9 is Rs.72 The SP of 56 pencils at the rate of 8 for Rs.11 is Rs.77 Profit is Rs.5. If the profit is Rs.5, the number of pencils is 56. But the profit is Rs.12.50, therefore the 12.5 number of pencils is 56 = 140 5 11. Let the 2 nd part be Rs.x, then the 1 st part is Rs.(3364 x) 5 3 5 5 (3364 x)[1 + ] = x [1+ ] 100 100 5 2 3364 x = x [1 + ] 100 441 3364 x = x 400 441 841 x + x = 3364 x = 3364 400 400 400 x = 3364 = 1600 841 12. Let the cost price of the article be Rs.100 Selling Price = Rs.130 (30% profit) if he buys 10% less, then C.P = Rs.90 Now the Selling Price = Rs.108 (20% profit) Difference in S.P is 130 108 = Rs.22 If the difference in S.P is Rs.22, the C.P is Rs.100. If the difference in S.P is Rs.330, then 330 C.P.= 100 = Rs.1500 22 13. Let the number of books be x 70 80 x = 1344 100 100 x = 2400 14. If 14% = 630, then 100% (Total) value is 100 630 = 4500 14 15.
