  1. A tradesman marks his goods 30% more than the cost price. If he
    allows a discount of 61/4 % then his gain per cent is ?
    1. 233/4%
    2. 22%
    3. 217/8%
    4. None of these
Correct Option: C

Let the C.P. be Rs. 100
Then, Marked price = Rs. 130
⇒ S.P. = (933/4 % of Rs. 130)
= Rs. (375/4 x 100 x 130)
= Rs. 975/8
= Rs. 1217/8
∴ Required gain% = 217/8 %
