Option 4 : 14.5

Given:

Cost price of computer table = Rs. 9,000

Cost price of centre table = Rs. 4,000

Profit% for computer table = 8%

Formula used:

Profit = SP – CP

Profit% = Profit/CP × 100

Calculation:

Selling price of Computer table = Rs. (9,000 × 108/100)

⇒ Rs. 9,720

Total cost price of computer table and centre table = Rs. (9,000 + 4,000) = Rs. 13,000

Selling price of a computer table and centre table = Rs. (13,000 × 110/100)

⇒ Rs. 14,300

Selling price of centre table = Rs. (14,300 – 9,720) = Rs. 4,580

Profit of centre table = Rs. (4,580 – 4,000) = Rs. 580

Profit% of centre table = (580/4000 × 100)

⇒ 14.5%

∴ The required profit% is 14.5
