Description : A man who makes a profit of 25 percent by selling sugar at Rs. 4.25/kg., lowers his price so as to gain only 5 paise per Kg. In what ratio must his sales be increased so that his total profit may be the same as before? a) 1 : 5 b) 1 : 11 c) 1 : 13 d) 1 : 17 e) 1 : 21

Last Answer : 125% C.P. of sugar per kg = Rs. 4.25 C.P of the sugar per kg = [4.25×100] / 125 = Rs. 3.40. thus, the profit on 1 kg 85 paise by reducing price to 5 paise, to make same profit he must sell, 85/5 = 17kg so required ratio = 1 : 17. Answer: d)
