    Question

    The difference between cost price and selling price is Rs. 264. If profit percentage is 33 percent, then what is the selling price?

    A.

    Rs. 1064

    B.

    Rs. 1526

    C.

    Rs. 1084

    D.

    Rs. 1024

    Correct option is A


    Given: The difference between cost price and selling price is Rs. 264. Profit percentage is 33%.
    Formula Used:
    Profit Percentage = ((Profit))/((Cost Price) ) × 100
    Profit = SP- CP
    Solution:
    Let the cost price be CP and selling price be SP.
    Profit = SP - CP = 264.
    33 = (264 / CP) × 100.
    CP = 264 / 0.33 = 800.
    SP = CP + Profit = 800 + 264 = Rs. 1064.
    Another Method:
    Let C.P be 100% then S.P = 100 + 33 = 133%
    33% = 264
    1% = 8
    S.P = 133% = 8 × 133 = Rs. 1064
