    Question

    A shopkeeper bought an article for Rs. 540. At what price (in Rs. ) should he sell the article to make 10% profit?

    A.

    606

    B.

    594

    C.

    582

    D.

    486

    Correct option is B

    Given:

    Cost Price (CP) = Rs. 540

    Profit = 10%

    Formula Used:

    SP = CP×(1+Profit %100) \times \left(1 + \frac{\text{Profit \%}}{100}\right)​​

    Solution:

    SP = 540×(1+10100) 540 \times \left(1 + \frac{10}{100}\right)​​

    540×1.10540 \times 1.10​​

    = Rs. 594
