Answer : 3. "Rs. 200"
Explanation :
Answer: C) Rs. 200 Explanation: Let the C.P be 'x'Then, the selling price S.P = x - 16x/100= 84x/100 = 21x/25Now, if the S.P is 60 more, then the profit is 14% => 21x/25 + 60 = x + 14x/100=> 114x/100 - 21x/25 = 60=> (57 - 42)x/50 = 60=> 15x/50 = 60x = 3000/15 = 200 Therefore, the Cost price C.P = x = Rs. 200
