a manufacturer sells a pair of glasses to a wholesale dealer at a profit of 18 % . the wholesaler sells the same to retailer at a profit of 20 % . the retailer in turn sells them to a customer for rs . 30.09 , there by earning a profit of 25 % . the cost price for the manufacturer is :
let the cost price for the manufacturer be rs . x . then , 125 % of 120 % of 118 % of x = 30.09 . 125 / 100 * 120 / 100 * 118 / 100 * x = 3009 / 100 177 / 100 x = 3009 / 100 = > x = 17 answer : c
