Solution

Sure, here are the answers to the questions:

Q 01. The selling price of the bag is calculated by subtracting the loss from the cost price. So, 750750 - 32 = 718.Therefore,theanswerisA.718. Therefore, the answer is A. 718.

Q 02. The percentage increase is calculated by subtracting the original number from the new number, dividing by the original number and then multiplying by 100. So, (16,000 - 12,000) / 12,000 * 100 = 33.33%. Therefore, the answer is A. 33.33%.

Q 03. If m : n = 6 : 7 and n = 19.6, then m can be found by cross multiplying. So, m = 6 * 19.6 / 7 = 16.8. Therefore, the answer is B. 16.8.

Q 04. If Jacob spends 8% of his income on transport and 60% of the remaining amount on food, then he saves 32% of his income. So, his income is 662.4/0.32=662.4 / 0.32 = 2070. Therefore, the answer is not in the options provided.

Q 05. If the ratio of Sophia and Alice's incomes is 7 : 9 and the ratio of their expenditures is 2 : 3, then Sophia's income can be found by subtracting her savings from her total expenditure. However, without knowing the total expenditure, this question cannot be answered.

Q 06. If the cost price of an item is 840,themarkupis15840, the mark up is 15% and the discount is 10%, then the selling price is 840 * 1.15 * 0.9 = $861. The profit percent is then (861 - 840) / 840 * 100 = 2.5%. Therefore, the answer is not in the options provided.

Q 07. If the ratio of water and oil in a mixture of 72 litres is 11 : 13, then the amount of water is 72 * 11 / 24 = 33 litres. To make the ratio 5 : 4, the amount of water must be 72 * 5 / 9 = 40 litres. Therefore, 7 litres of water must be added. The answer is not in the options provided.
