Q. A product is marked at $500 and is sold at a 15% discount. What is the selling price?

A. $425
B. $450
C. $475
D. $500

Solution

Discount = 15% of 500 = 0.15 * 500 = 75. Selling price = 500 - 75 = 425.

Correct Answer: A — $425

Q. A product is sold for $120 after a 25% increase in price. What was the original price?

A. 90
B. 100
C. 80
D. 110

Solution

Let original price be x. Then, x + 0.25x = 120. 1.25x = 120, x = 120 / 1.25 = 96.

Correct Answer: B — 100

Q. A product is sold for $120 after a 25% profit. What was the cost price?

A. $90
B. $100
C. $80
D. $70

Solution

Let the cost price be x. Then, x + 0.25x = 120 => 1.25x = 120 => x = 120 / 1.25 = 96.

Correct Answer: A — $90

Q. A product is sold for $120 after a discount of 20%. What was the original price?

A. $100
B. $120
C. $150
D. $140

Solution

Q. A product is sold for $120 after a profit of 20%. What was the cost price?

A. $90
B. $100
C. $110
D. $80

Q. A product is sold for $150 after a discount of 10%. What was the original price?

A. $165
B. $160
C. $170
D. $150

Solution

Let the original price be x. Then, selling price = x - 10% of x = 0.9x. Given selling price = $150, we have 0.9x = 150. Therefore, x = 150 / 0.9 = $166.67.
