When an object is sold for Tk. the seller makes 25% profit What is the cost price of the object?

A Tk. 200

B Tk. 180

C Tk. 220

D Tk. 160

Solution

Correct Answer: Option A

At 25% profit,

CP = 100 taka

SP = 125 taka

When, SP is 125 taka, CP is 100 taka

When, SP is 250 taka, CP is (100 * 250 / 125) taka

= 200 taka
