Answers with Explaination:

1) CP = MP = 350 SP = 350 * 90/100 = 315 Loss% = (350 – 315)/350 * 100 = 10% 2) Let the discount offered be ‘x’ % MP = 107/100 * 100 = 107 SP is same as CP, 100 = 107/100 * (100 – x) 100 – x = 93.45 x = 6.54% 3) SP = 220 * 80/100 = 176 CP = 176 * 100 / (100+17.34) CP = 150 4) SP = 620 * 75/100 = 465 CP = MP/2 = 620/2 = 310 % Profit = (465 – 310)/310 * 100 = 50% 5) Average = (100+100+150+350+310)/5=202 Rs 6) Population of Shimla in 2001 = 1.5 * 100/110 = 1.36 Lakhs 7) Population of Nainital in 2001 = 1.36 * 100/92 = 1.48 Average = (1.36+1.50+3+4+1.48+1.36)/6=12.7/6=2.11 Lakhs 8) % increase = 4-3/3 * 100 = 100/3 = 33 1/3 % 10) Required % = (4-1.36)/4*100=(2.64/4)*100=66%
