4- (C)
cost price of Rubi stone = Rs.1600
cost price of Ring = Rs.2400
Actual cost price = Rs. 4000
Selling price = (7800*90/100)= 7020
profit percent = (7020-4000)/4000 * 100=75.5%
5- (A)
Let the cost price of cow = 100
so, overall profit
= (20*15+40*19+16*25) = 1460
If total price is 1460 then cost price =100
if profit is 6570 then cost price = 100/1460 *6570 = 450
