If % goods are sold at a 30% profit, 25% goods are sold at a 16% profit and the rest at a 48% loss, there is a profit of ₹180. The cost price of the goods is:
Given:
goods sold at 30% profit
25% goods sold at 16% profit
Remaining (100% − 66⅔% − 25% = 8⅓% or ) sold at 48% loss
Overall profit = ₹180
Formula Used:
Solution:
Let CP = ₹100
30% profit on of 100 = ₹66.67
Profit = = ₹20
16% profit on 25% of 100 = ₹25
Profit = = ₹4
48% loss on remaining = 100 − 66.67 − 25 = ₹8.33
Loss = = ₹4
Net Profit = ₹20 + ₹4 − ₹4 = ₹20
But actual profit = ₹180
Now scale = = ₹900
