A shop-keeper sells a hockey stick marked Rs. 150 at 10 percent discount and gives a ball costing Rs. 20.00 free with each hockey. He then makes a profit of 15 percent. His cost price per hockey is-

The correct option is D Rs. 100M.P of hockey =Rs.150Discount =10%i.e 150×10100=Rs.15∴ Net S.P=150−(15+20)=Rs.115C.P=100×SP(100+gain)=100×115115=Rs.100

A shop-keeper sells a hockey stick marked Rs. $150$ at $10$ percent discount and gives a ball costing Rs. $20.00$ free with each hockey. He then makes a profit of $15$ percent. His cost price per hockey is-

The correct option is D Rs. $100$
M.P of hockey $= R s .150$
Discount $= 10$ %
i.e $\frac{150 \times 10}{100} = R s .15$
$∴$ Net S.P $= 150 - (15 + 20) = R s .115$
$C . P = \frac{100 \times S P}{(100 + g a i n)}$
$= \frac{100 \times 115}{115} = R s .100$
