Question

10. Aditya and Manav purchased one scooter each for the same price. Aditya sold it for 18,400 and
lost 8%. At what price should Manav sell it to have a profit of 6%?​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Aditya sold Scooter for Rs.18400

Loss% =8 %

Then C.P. =

100−loss percentage

S.P.×100

=

100−8

100×18400

=Rs.20000

Now we know C.P.=Rs.20000

And Manav sold it at profit of 6%

Hence,Profit =

100

profit percentage×C.P.

=

100

6×20000

=

100

120000

=Rs.1200

Therefore S.P. or the price at which Manav sold it =20000+1200=Rs.21200

Answer 2

CP = Loss/100xSP = 8/100x18,400 = 1472 rupees. CP = Profit + SP = 1472 + 18,400 = 19872 rupees. CP = 19872 rupees. Profit= 6%. Sp sold at 6% profit = 6/100x19872 = 1192.32 rupees.
SP = Profit + CP = 1192.32+19872 = 21064.32
