Solution

Primero, determinemos el costo de cada artículo.

El hombre vende 24 artículos por Rs. 18144 y sufre una pérdida del 10%. Esto significa que el precio de venta es el 90% del costo original.

Costo total de 24 artículos = Rs. 18144 Por lo tanto, el costo original de 24 artículos = 18144 / 0.90 = Rs. 20160

Costo de un artículo = 20160 / 24 = Rs. 840

Ahora, queremos saber cuántos artículos debe vender para obtener una ganancia del 10% vendiéndolos por Rs. 25872.

El precio de venta con una ganancia del 10% será el 110% del costo original.

Precio de venta de un artículo con ganancia del 10% = 840 * 1.10 = Rs. 924

Número de artículos que se pueden vender por Rs. 25872 = 25872 / 924 = 28

Por lo tanto, la respuesta correcta es:

28
