Answer:

33.33%

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that the customer paid Rs. 2034 after getting 10% discount with 13% vat on marked price (m.p.)

hence:-

2034 = m.p. × 90/100 × 113/100

m.p = (2034 × 100 × 100)/(90 × 113)

m.p. = Rs.2000

Now, due to the fact that VAT (which in this question is given to be 13%) is not the profit of the retailer, thus the selling price (s.p.) of the bag would be given by;

s.p = m.p. × 90/100

s.p = 2000 × 90/100

s.p = Rs. 1800

We are told that the retailer made a profit of 20%

Thus:-

c.p. × 120/100 = s.p.

c.p.= s.p. × 100/120

c.p.= 1800 × 100/120

c.p. = Rs.1500

Therefore, the percentage with which he marked above the c.p is;

% mark up = (m.p - c.p)/c.p) × 100

Plugging in the relevant values, we have;

(2000 - 1500)/1500) × 100

(500/1500) × 100 = 33.33%

Answer:

the actual distance is 1800 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

Proportion states that the two fractions or ratios are equal.

Let x be the actual distance.

As per the statement:

Reggie was looking at a map of the school the scale shows that 1 inch equals 150 ft.

⇒1 inch = 150 ft.

if the distance between his classroom in the cafeteria measures 12 in on the map.

by definition of proportions we have;

\frac{1}{150} = \frac{12}{x}

By cross multiply we have;

x = 12 \cdot 150 = 1,800 ft

Therefore, the actual distance is 1800 ft.
