Answer 1

Question:

Ahmed buys a plot of land for 480000. He sells 2/5 of it at a loss of 6%. At what gain per cent 25 should he sell the remaining part of the plot to gain 10% on the whole?

Answer:

20.6%

Step-by-step explanation:

Buy of land=Rs.192000

2/5×480000=Rs,1920000

Loss=6%

100-6/100×1920000

Rs.180480

Total gain=10%

100+10/480000≠Rs.528000

S.P=528000-180480=Rs.347520

C.P of remaining part of land.

S.P-C.P/C.P×10

347520-288000/28000×100

20.6% Answer

Hence,

this is answer.
