    Genuine Maths Workings are with gray backgroundTamilnadu Govt. Textbook for Class 6Example 32:

    An article was bought at Rs. 450 and sold for Rs. 500. Find the profit or loss.

    Solution: C.P. of an article = Rs. 450

    C.P. of an article = Rs. 500

    S.P. is greater than C.P. so there is a proft.

    Profit = S.P. C.P.

    = 500 450 = Rs. 50.

    Example 33:

    A television set was bought for Rs. 10,500 and sold at Rs. 9,500. Find the profit or loss.

    Solution: C.P. of the television set = Rs. 10500

    S.P. of the television set = Rs. 9500

    Here C.P. is greater than S.P. so there is a loss.Loss = C.P. S.P.

    = 10,500 9,500 = Rs. 1000.

    Example 34:

    A bag is bought at Rs. 200 and sold at a profit of 10%. Find the selling price.

    Solution: Profit = 10% of Rs. 200

    =10

    100x 200 = Rs. 20

    S.P. = C.P. + Profit

    = 200 + 20 = Rs. 220.

    Discuss:

    In the above example, we can simplify the procedure as follows:

    Selling Price =100 10

    100

    x Cost Price

    =110

    100x 200 = Rs. 220

    Article was bought for Rs.450;

    Article was sold for Rs.500.

    Profit = 500 450 = 50

    Profit is Rs.50.

    Television set was bought for Rs.10,500

    Television set was sold for Rs. 9,500

    Loss =10,500 9,500 = Rs. 1000

    Profit = 10% of 200 = 20

    S.P. = 200 + 20 = 220

    Selling Price = Rs.220.

    Profit 10%

    cost is 100% and selling price is 110%

    selling price = 110% of 200= 1.1 x 200 = Rs. 220

    Example 1: Anwar purchased 120 oranges at the rate of Rs 2 per orange. He sold 60%of the oranges at the rate of Rs 2.50 per orange and the remaining oranges at the rate of

    Rs 2 per orange. Find his profit percent.

    Solution: C.P. of 120 oranges = Rs 2 x 120 = Rs 240

    60% of 120 oranges =60

    100x 120 = 72 oranges

    Now S.P. of 72 oranges = Rs 2.50 x 72 = Rs 180

    and S.P. of the remaining 120 72, i.e., 48 oranges = Rs 2x48 = Rs.96

    S.P. of all the 120 oranges = Rs 180 + Rs 96 = Rs 276

    Therefore prof it = S.P. C.P.

    = Rs (276 240) = Rs 36

    Hence profit per cent =36

    240x 100 = 15

    Thus Anwars profit is 15%

    Example 2: Maninder bought two horses at Rs 20000 each. He sold one horse at

    15% gain. But he had to sell the second horse at a loss. If he had suffered a loss of Rs

    1800 on the whole transaction, find the selling price of the second horse.

    Solution: Total C.P. of the two horses = 2 x Rs 20000 = Rs 40000

    Loss = Rs 1800

    Total S.P. = Rs 40000 Rs 1800

    = Rs 38200 (1)

    Now S.P. of the first horse at 15% profit= C.P. x100 + Profit %

    100

    = Rs 20000(100 + 15)

    100= Rs 23000 (2)

    S.P. of the second horse = Rs 38200 Rs 23000

    Thus, the selling price of the second horse is Rs 15200.

    Solution:

    Anwars cost price = 2 x 120 = Rs.240 --- (1)

    He sold 60% of mangoes at a profit of Rs.0.50 each

    60% of 120 = 0.6 x 120 = 72

    Anwar made a profit of 0.50 x 72 = Rs.36 --- (2)

    He sold the rest at Rs.2 only which is his cost (no profit, no loss).

    Anwars total profit is Rs.36 on a C. P. of Rs.240

    Profit =36

    240x 100 = 15%

    Anwars profit is 15%

    Solution:

    Cost of 2 horses isRs.40000 [2 x 20000]

    Total loss Rs. 1800Total selling price Rs.38200

    Profit on the f irst horse is 15% = Rs.3000 [10% is 2000, 5% is 1000]

    Selling price of f irst horse: Rs.23000

    So selling price of second = 38200 23000 = Rs. 15200.

    Example 4: A farmer sold two bullocks for Rs 18000 each. On one

    bullock he gained 20% and on the other he lost 20%. Find his total loss or

    gain.

    Solution: S.P. of the first bullock = Rs 18000

    Gain = 20%

    Therefore C.P. =100 x S.P.

    100 + Profit %

    =100 x 18000

    Rs100 + 20

    = Rs 15000

    (1)S.P. of the second bullock = Rs 18000

    Loss = 20%

    Therefore C.P. =100 x S.P.

    100 - Loss %

    =100 x 18000

    Rs100 - 20

    = Rs 22500

    (2)

    Now, total C.P. = Rs 15000 + Rs 22500

    = Rs 37500

    and total S.P. = 2 X Rs 18000 = Rs 36000Hence loss = Rs 37500 Rs 36000

    = Rs 1500

    Example 3: By selling 144 hens, Malleshwari lost the S.P. of 6 hens.

    Find her loss percent.

    Solution:

    First Gain = 20% C. P. is 100% and S. P. is 120%

    S.P. of one bullock = Rs 18000

    120% is 18000, then 100% is 18000 1.2 = 15000C. P. of first bullock is Rs.15000 (1)

    Second: Loss = 20% C. P. is 100% and S. P. is 80%

    S.P. is Rs 18000

    80% is 18000, then 100% is 18000 0.8 = 22500C. P. of second bullock is Rs.22500 (2)

    Total cost of two bullocks is Rs.37500 [from (1) and (2)]

    Total selling price is 18000 x 2 = Rs.36000

    Total loss is Rs.1500

    Example 3: By selling 144 hens, Malleshwari lost the S.P. of 6 hens.

    Find her loss percent.

    and simple concept here which the child will learn and apply?

    cards, find the gain or loss per cent.

    EXAMPLE 7. By selling 33 m of cloth, a draper loses an amount equal to the selling price

    of 3 m of cloth. Find his gain or loss per cent.

    Solution:

    Buying price = Rs.750; Selling price = Rs.875or Bought for = Rs.750; Sold for = Rs.875

    Profit = 875 750 = 125 (this is out of the cost: 750)

    Example 54: (page 132)

    Area of the four walls of a hall is 360 sq. m. Its length and breadth are 20m and

    10m respectively. Find its height.

    Solution:

    ph = 360 m2 ; l= 20m ; b = 10m ; h = ?

    p = 2l+ 2b

    = 2 x 20 + 2 x 10

    = 40 + 20 = 60p x h = 360

    i.e. 60 x h = 360

    Dividing both sides by 60,

    60 360=

    60 60

    xh

    h = 6 m

    height = 6 m.

    Area of the four walls of a hall is 360 sq. m. The halls

    length and breadth are 20m and 10m respectively. Find the

    height of the hall.

    SmartCalcSolution:

    A = 360 m2; l= 20m; b = 10m; h = ?

    P = 2 (l + b) = 2 (20 + 10) = 60 m

    We know: Ph = A60 h = 360

    h = 6 m

    Height of the hall is 6 m.

    4parts of the area of the walls is

    occupied by the doors and windows. Find the cost of white washing the walls of

    the room at Rs.3.50 persq.m.

    Solution:

    Perimeter of the square roomp = 4 a

    = 4 x 16m = 64 m

    height = 4 mArea of the four walls = ph

    = 64 m x 4 m = 256 m2

    Area of doors and windows =1

    4x 256 m2

    = 64 m2

    Area to be white washed = 256 m2 64 m2

    = 192 m2

    Cost of white washing 1 m2 = Rs. 3.50

    Cost of white washing 192 m2 = Rs.192 x 3.50

    = Rs.672Hence the cost of white washing the room = Rs.672

    Monica has a piece of canvas whose area is 551 m2. She uses it to have a conical

    tent made, with a base radius of 7 m. Assuming that all the stitching margins andthe wastage incurred while cutting, amounts to approximately 1 m3, find the volume

    of the tent.page 232

    Solution:

    Since the area of the canvas = 551 m2 and area of the canvas lost in wastage is 1

    m2, therefore the area of canvas available for making the tent is (551 1) m2 = 550

    m2.

    Now the surface area of the tent = 550 m 2 and the required base radius of the

    conical tent = 7 m.

    Note that a tent has only a curved surface (the floor of a tent is not covered bycanvas!!)

    In figure, two circular flower beds have been shown on two sides of a square lawnABCD of side 56 m. If the centre of each circular flower bed is the point of intersection

    O of the diagonals of the square lawn, find the sum of the areas of the lawn and

    the flower beds.

    Solution:

    Area of the square lawn ABCD = 56 x 56 m2 (1)

    Let OA = OB = xmetres

    So, x2+ x2 = 562

    or, 2x2 = 56 x 56
