Question

After selling an article a man gains 25%. Also he uses a false weight of 10%. Find the total profit % earned by him?

Answer 1

Let the CP of article be $C$

Then according to question S.P. = $C\times \frac{5}{4}\times \frac{10}{9}$

S.P.= $C\times$ ($1+\frac{14}{36}$)

So Total profit%= $\frac{350}{9}$%
