    A dealer buys an article for Rs 380.00. What price should he mark so that after allowing a discount of 5% he still makes a profit of 25% on the article?

    A)  Rs 500                       

    B)  Rs 475    

    C)  Rs 95                         

    D)  Rs 465

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Ans.     CP = Rs 380, Profit =25% \[\therefore \] SP =125% of \[380=\frac{125}{100}\times 380=\,\text{Rs}\,\,\text{475}\] Now,            95% of MP = 475 \[MP=475\times \frac{100}{75}=Rs\,500\]
