Question : In two circles centred at O and O’, the distance between the centres of both circles is 17 cm. The points of contact of a direct common tangent between the circles are P and Q. If the radii of both circles are 7 cm and 15 cm, respectively, then the length of PQ is equal to:

Option 1: 15 cm

Option 2: 17 cm

Option 3: 10 cm

Option 4: 22 cm

Question : A table is sold at a profit of 13%. If it is sold for Rs 25 more, then the profit is 18%. The cost price of the table is:

Option 1: Rs. 100

Option 2: Rs. 500

Option 3: Rs. 200

Option 4: Rs. 1,000

Team Careers360 23rd Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: Rs. 500


Solution : Let the cost price ($\text{CP}$) of the table be $y$
Selling Price ($\text{SP}$) at $R\%$ profit = $\frac{(100+R\%)}{100}\times \text {CP}$
According to the question,
$\frac{113y}{100}+25=\frac{118y}{100}$
⇒ $\frac{5y}{100}=25$
⇒ $y=500$
Hence, the correct answer is Rs. 500.
