    Question

    Anand bought a car for Rs. 8,00,000 and sold it a profit of 5% to Dhiraj. Dhiraj sold it at a loss of 4% to Anil. What is the amount paid by Anil for the car?

    A.

    ₹8,60,000

    B.

    ₹8,06,400

    C.

    ₹8,40,000

    D.

    ₹8,73,600

    Correct option is B

    Given:

    Cost Price of car for Anand = ₹8,00,000

    Profit for Anand while selling to Dhiraj = 5%

    Loss for Dhiraj  = 4%

    Formula Used:

    Profit = SP - CP

    Profit Percent =ProfitCP×100\frac{Profit}{CP} \times 100​​

    Loss Percent =LossCP×100\frac{Loss}{CP} \times 100​​

    Loss = CP - SP

    Solution:

    If CP of car for Anand = ₹8,00,000

    Profit for Anand = 5% of 8,00,000 = ₹40,000

    Selling Price for Anand = ₹8,40,000

    Selling Price for Anand is Cost Price for Dhiraj

    Loss for Dhiraj = 4% of 8,40,000 = ₹33,600

    Selling Price for Dhiraj = 8,40,000 - 33,600 = ₹ 8,06,400

    But Selling Price for Dhiraj is Cost Price for Anil

    Hence Anil paid ₹8,06,400 for the car
