A bicycle is sold at a gain of 16%. If it had been sold for Rs. 20 more, 20% would have been gained. The C.P. of the bicycle is ?
-
- Rs. 350
- Rs. 400
- Rs. 500
- Rs. 600
Correct Option: C
∵ (20% of C.P.) - (16% of C.P.) = Rs. 20
⇒ 4% of C.P. = 20
⇒ (4/100 x C.P.) = 20
⇒ C.P. = Rs. (100 x 20/4)
∴ C.P. of the bicycle = Rs. 500
