11. X sells an item to Y at a profit of 28% on his cost and sells the item to Z at a loss of 25%
on his cost. If Y thus sold item to Z at Tk. 2 less than the time X, then what is the cost of the
item to X? [BB Officer 22]
A. Tk. 200 B. Tk. 150 C. Tk. 100 D. Tk. 50 Ans: D
Explanation:
Let, cost of item X = Tk. 100.
then selling price to Y = Tk. (100+ 28% of 100) = Tk. 128.
Selling price from Y to Z = Tk. (128 – 25% of 128) = Tk. 96.
So, Y sold it Tk. (100-96) = Tk. 4 less from cost price to X.
When Y sold Tk. 4 less, then cost price to X Tk. 100,
∴ When Y sold Tk. 2 less, then cost price to X = Tk. ( ) = Tk. 50 (Ans.)

Alternative Method:
Let, Cost price be Tk. 100
So, Y buys it at (100+28) = Tk. 128
and sold it to Z at (128 - 128×25%) = Tk. (128-32) = Tk. 96
Y sold it at Tk. 4 less when cost price is Tk. 100
∴ Y sold it at Tk. 2 less when cost price is Tk. ( ) = Tk. 50 (Ans.)

18. In a factory, there are workers, executives and clerks. 58% of the employees are workers,
660 are executives and the remaining 264 employees are clerks. How many employees are
there in the factory? [Combined 9 Banks SO 23]
A. 1500 B. 2000 C. 2200 D. 2500 Ans: C
Explanation:
Let, the number of employees be x.
As per question,
100x = 58% of 100x + 660 + 264
Or, 100x = 58x + 924
Or, 100x – 58x = 924 Or, 42x = 924 Or, x = = 22
100x = 22×100 = 2200
The number of employees = 2200 (Ans.)
