• A. 33.33%
• B. 50%
• C. 42.85%
• D. None of these

Answer 1

The correct option is A 33.33%

Let Bobby's sale price is Rs. 100

Ram sale price = Rs. 80

Ram sale price is 20% dearer than chandilya

So, Chandilya's price = CP

$CP\times \frac{120}{100}=80,CP=66.66$

Now Chandilya good is Rs. 33.33 cheaper than Bobby's i.e.

$=\frac{33.63}{100}\times 100=33.33\%$
