Q: A Shopkeeper sells two articles at Rs.1000 each, making a profit of 20% on the first article and a loss of 20% on the second article. Find the net Profit or loss that he makes?
Solution: SP of first article = Rs.1000 Profit = 20% CP = SP x 100100+P% = Rs. 25003 SP of Second Article = Rs.1000 Loss = 20% CP = SP x 100100-L% = Rs. 1250 So, Total SP = Rs.2000; Total CP = Rs.6250/3 As the CP is more than SP, he makes a loss. Loss = CP - SP = (6250/3) - 2000 = Rs.(250/3) So, Loss Percent = Lossx100/CP = 4% The correct answer is: A) 4%

Q: 4 men can repair a road in 7 hours. How many men are required to repair the road in 2 hours ?
Solution: M x T / W = Constantwhere, M= Men (no. of men)T= Time takenW= Work loadSo, here we applyM1 x T1/ W1 = M2 x T2 / W2Given that, M1 = 4 men, T1 = 7 hours ; T2 = 2 hours, we have to find M2 =?Note that here, W1 = W2 = 1 road, ie. equal work load.Clearly, substituting in the above equation we get, M2 = 14 men. The correct answer is: B) 14 men
