1. Aman sells 2 commodities for Tk. 4000 each, neither losing nor gaining in the deal. If he sold one commodity at a gain of 25%, then what is the cost price of another commodity?
- A. Tk.4800
- B. Tk.4800
- C. Tk.4800
- D. Tk.4800
Answer: Option A
Explanation:
Total S.P. = Tk. 8000 and
Total C.P. = Tk. 8000
S.P. of 1st commodity = Tk. 4000
Gain on it = 25%
∴ C.P. of 1st commodity = Tk. {(100/125)×4000}
= Tk. 3200
C.P. of 2nd commodity = Tk. (8000−3200) = Tk. 4800 Ans
