A merchant claims 4 % loss on cofee but uses weight equal to 840 gm instead of kg .the merchant gains or losses what % ?
let 100rs for 1000 gm so 10 gm---1rs,
but he claims 4% loss so he put his sp as 96 but he is giving only 840 gms so 10 gm--96/84
(96/84-1)1=1/7=14.28%....the thing is take cp and sp for the same weight always

A car travelling with 5/7 of its usual speed covers 42 km in 1 hr 40 min 48sec What is the usul speed of the car?
S = D/T
5x/7 = 42/(1 + 40/60 + 48/3600)
x = 35...

42000 / (5s/7) = 6048

=> S = 7*4200 / 5*6048

S in km/hr will be = 7*42000*18/25*6048 = 35 km/hr

What percent of P is asked and not Q.
It's asked what percentage is Q greater than P???
@jashholmes said:
A number P is increased by 30% and another number Q is decreased by 30% to make them equal. But what percentage is Q greater than P???
1.3P=0.7Q
1.3/0.7P=Q....1.85xxP=Q hence 85.xx
