Multiple choice

Passage

In each of the following questions, a question & then two statements – I & II are given. You have to determine that the data provided in these statements is enough to answer the question or not. Study both the statement: निम्नलिखित प्रत्येक प्रश्न में एक प्रश्न और फिर दो कथन I और II दिए गए हैं। आपको यह निर्धारित करना है कि इन कथनों में प्रदान किया गया डेटा प्रश्न का उत्तर देने के लिए पर्याप्त है या नहीं। दोनों कथनों का अध्ययन करें:

What is the marked price of an article? एक वस्तु का अंकित मूल्य क्या है? Statement I: The selling price after giving 25% discount on the marked price is Rs. 600. Statement II: If the article was sold on the marked price then the profit earned on the cost price would be either 60% or Rs. 300. कथन I: अंकित मूल्य पर 25% की छूट देने के बाद विक्रय मूल्य रु. 600. कथन II: यदि वस्तु को अंकित मूल्य पर बेचा जाता है तो क्रय मूल्य पर अर्जित लाभ या तो 60% या रु. 300 है

  1. Only Statement I alone. केवल कथन I

  2. Only Statement II alone. केवल कथन II

  3. Both Statements I and II together. दोनों कथन I और II एक साथ

  4. Neither Statement I nor II is sufficient. न तो कथन I और न ही II पर्याप्त है।

  5. Either Statement I or II. या तो कथन I या II

E Correct answer
Explanation

We need the marked price. Statement I: After 25% discount, SP = Rs. 600. So 0.75 × MP = 600, MP = 600/0.75 = Rs. 800. Statement I alone is sufficient. Statement II: If sold at MP, profit is either 60% or Rs. 300. This means 60% of CP = 300 (since profit is either 60% OR Rs. 300, these must be equal). So 0.6 CP = 300, CP = Rs. 500. Then MP = CP + profit = 500 + 300 = Rs. 800. Statement II alone is also sufficient. Since either statement alone gives the answer, option E is correct.
