Anil sells sugar at cost price but uses false weights and thus makes 20% profit. How many grams of sugar does he give in 1 kilogram?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 4 i.e. 833.33.

We know that,

Actual weight gain = 100100+P100\over100+P × 1000 grams

here, Profit(P) = 20%

Actual weight = 100120100\over120 × 1000 = 833.33 grams

So, Anil gives 833.33 grams of sugar instead of 1 kg
