Question:

The cost price of 33 books is the same as the selling price of ‘x’ books. If the profit is 10%, then the value of ‘x’ is :

Options:

30

20

10

40

Correct Answer:

30

Explanation:

According to the question

33 × C.P = x × S.P

\(\frac{CP}{SP}\) = \(\frac{x}{33}\)

So, C.P = x 

S.P = 33 

x × \(\frac{110}{100}\) = 33

x × 11 = 330

x = 30
