Sample Quantitative Aptitude questions
1. A shopkeeper marks goods 40% above cost and gives a 25% discount. His profit percent is:
- (A) 5%
- (B) 10%
- (C) 15%
- (D) 12%
Show answer
(A) 5%. Concept: Marked price, discount and profit — discount is applied on the marked price, profit is measured on the cost price. Formula: SP = MP × (1 − d%); Profit % = (SP − CP)/CP × 100. Shortcut: net % = m − d − md/100 where m = mark-up %, d = discount %. Steps: Let CP = ₹100 MP = 100 + 40% = ₹140 SP = 140 × (1 − 0.25) = 140 × 0.75 = ₹105 Profit = 105 − 100 = ₹5 ⇒ 5% Shortcut: 40 − 25 − (40 × 25)/100 = 15 − 10 = 5% ✓ Why others are wrong: - B) 10% and C) 15% come from subtracting 40 − 25 = 15 (ignores that discount is on the higher marked price). - D) 12% fits no calculation. Remember: Mark-up then discount never simply subtract; use the successive-percentage formula a + b + ab/100 with the discount as negative.
