Ques:- A dishonest shopkeeper professes to sell pulses at the cost price, but he uses a false weight of 950gm. for a kg. His gain is____%.
Recent Answer : Added by Rohit Saha On 2021-09-16 17:27:37:

let’s say the Cost Price is 1000x. (CP)
The selling price is also the same as the Cost price. So, here SP=CP (But he sells 950gm instead of 1000gm)

Instead of 1000gm, he is selling 950 grams at the CP. So he sells 050 gms @1000x price. So his net profit is 50gm.
Now 1000gm is 1000x Rs
So, 50gms is 50x rs. [Apllied Unitary Method]

So his profit percentage is:
Profit Percentage Formula: {(Profit/CP)*100%}
So, Here profit is 50x;
CP is 1000x;
so putting the value in the formula we get, Profit Percentage is: (50x/1000x)*100% =(5000x/1000x)%=5%.

poisonous bottles. So the answer is 10.

Ques:- Old Man Wrinkle Man Wrinkle spent 1/4th of his life as a boy, 1/8th as a youth, and 1/2 as an active man. If Man Wrinkle spent 8 years as an old man, then how many years did he spend as an active man?
Recent Answer : Added by Emad Samy On 2021-09-14 15:42:00:

32
Solution:

life as a boy = 1/4
life as a youth = 1/8
life as an active man = 1/2
sum of life as boy, youth and active man = 1/4 + 1/8 + 1/2 = 7/8
life as an old man = 1 − 7/8 = 1/8
1/8 Wrinkle’s life (as an old man) is 8 years.
and 1/2 = 1/8 *4
So, 1/2 Wrinkle’s Age (as active man) = 8*4 = 32years.
