A sells a bicycle to B and makes a profit of 50%. B sells the same bicycle to C at a profit of 25%. If the final S.P. of the bicycle was Rs. 225, find out the cost price of the bicycle for A. Pick one
A) 237
B) 126
C) 971
D) 611
E) 120
120xplanation:   Let CP be 100   A sells at 50% profit so SP=150   B sells at 25% profit = 150 x (1+25/100) = 187.50   CP --- SP   100--- 187.50   x --- 225   CP = 225 x 100/187.50 = 120   ANSW120R: 120
