when ever x% profit,
it means S.P. = (100 + x)% of C.P
So here will be (100 - x)% of C.P.
= 80% of 1200
= 80/100 * 1200
= 960

A)p+5/1.05
B)c/1.05 +5
C)1.05c-5
D)c-5/1.05
E)1.05(p – 5)
Rationale: Let x be the price of the item.
Final price after discount and sales tax = x * (1 - c/100) * 1.05
Let d be the percent discount which would result in the same final price.
Then,
x * (1 - c/100) * 1.05 = x * (1 - d/100)
=> 1.05 - 1.05c/100 = 1 - d/100
=> d/100 = 1.05c/100 - .05
=> d = 1.05c - 5
Hence ,option C is correct.

Options:
A)50 days
B)110.6 days
C)100 days
D)150 days
E)80 days
Rationale: P works 25% more efficiently than Q: Something that takes Q 5 days, takes P 4 days
Q works 50% more efficiently than R: Something that takes R 7.5 days, takes Q 5 days
P alone takes 50 days less than Q: For every 4 days P works, Q has to work an extra day. Hence P alone can do it in 200 days and Q alone in 250 days and hence R alone in 395 days
P works for 60 days--> 60/200 work done => 30%
Q works for 145 days--> 145/250 work done => 58%
28% work left ... R alone will take 28% * 395 = 110.6 days

0.6x=females before adding men
0.55(x+30)=females after adding men
as quantity of women doesn't change we can make an equation:
0.6x=0.55(x+30)
0.05x=16.5
x=330 - this is quantity of employees before adding 30 men
So after adding it will be 360
