Question

I bought $80$ kg of sugar for $Rs.88$ and was obliged to sell it at loss of as much money as I received for $20$ kg. At which price did I buy the sugar?

• A. $80P$
• B. $88P$
• C. $44P$
• D. $96P$

Answer 1

The correct option is B $88P$

S.P. of $80kg=C.P.$ of $80kg-$ S.P. of $20kg$
$\Rightarrow$ S.P. of $100kg=Rs.88$
$\therefore$ S.P. of $1kg=88P$
