Bank Exam Quant – Arithmetic (Profit & Loss, SI-CI, Time & Work)

Business calculations and arithmetic concepts

Arithmetic is the most important section in quantitative aptitude. Questions are concept-based and require proper understanding and practice.


1. Profit & Loss

Formulas:

  • Profit = SP - CP
  • Loss = CP - SP
  • Profit % = (Profit / CP) × 100

Example:
CP = 100, SP = 120
Profit = 20 → Profit % = 20%


2. Simple & Compound Interest

Formulas:

  • SI = (P × R × T) / 100
  • CI = P(1 + R/100)T

Example:
P = 1000, R = 10%, T = 1
SI = 100


3. Time & Work

Work = Time × Efficiency

Example:
A completes work in 10 days
→ 1 day work = 1/10

CP = 200, SP = 250
