    Question



    The cost price of 35 articles is the same as the selling price of N articles. If the profit earned is 40%, the value of N is:

    A.

    15

    B.

    20

    C.

    25

    D.

    30

    Correct option is C


    35CP = N SP
    CP/SP = N/35
    Profit = 35-N
    Profit percent = (35-N)/N × 100 = 40%
    (35-N)/N = 40/100
    5(35-N ) = 2N
    175 -5N = 2N
    N= 175/7 = 25
