III. Cost price is Rs. 15,000.
1). Any two of three
2). Only I & II
3). Only I & III
4). Only II and III
2 answers
Clearly each statement alone is not sufficient.
I & II : Let CP = 100x
=> SP = 120x [Since, profit = 20%]
Profit = 120x - 100x = 20x = 1200 => x = 60
SP = 7200
Thus, I & II are sufficient.
I & III : CP = 15000
Profit% = 20%
=> SP = 18000
Thus, I & III are sufficient.
II & III : CP = 15000
Profit = 1200
=> SP = 15000+1200 = 16200
Thus, II & III are sufficient.
Therefore, any two of the three statements is sufficient.
