Required percentage = ×100
3000 If CP be x then SP will be 2x.

Let the two digits of the number be x and y
44. (B) Required ratio = (23.7+12.5):18
Now, x + y = 7 and xy = 6100

Thus, we get x = 5 and y = 2
46. (A) ⇒ p = 13/4, 13/2, ⇒ q = 13/4, 13/5
The number could therefore be 52 (not divisible
47. (C) ⇒ p = 24/11, ⇒ q = 12/8
