Answer» Correct Answer - Option 3 : Rs. 80000 Given: The Sumit paid = Rs. 67200 Formula used: \(GM\% =\ {GM\over TM}× 100\) (Where GM = Gain marks and TM = Total marks) Calculation: Let us assume Mohan bought a car at price P ⇒ Shyam purchase the car from Mohan at = P × (120/100) = 6P/5 ⇒ Sumit purchase the car from Sumit at = (6P/5) × (70/100) = 84P/100 ⇒ 84P/100 = 67200 ⇒ P = \({67200\ \times\ 100 \over 84 }\) = 80000 ∴ The required result will be 80000. |
