Answer Posted / sudha

1) Investing 100 he gets 120.
so, cost price of each tofee = 100*10/120 = >25/3 ps.

so for 100ps he gets (100/25)*3 = 12 tofees.

2)A:B:C => A:2A/3:A/2 => 1:2/3:1/2 => 6:4:3

3)Let CP=x
then SP=4x/3
profit % = (100*4x/3)/x => (100*4x)/3x => 400/3 => 133.33
so, Profit % = 33.33
