Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is 2962.575 and if you want solution then I have given it at

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Pakhi sold watch at profit % = 10%

Kusum sold watch at loss % = 5%

CP of watch when mehreen bought = 3135

cost of watch when Pakhi sold = ?

cost of watch when Pakhi bought = ?

cost of watch when Pakhi sold =

$\frac{100 + 5\%}{100} \times 3135$

$\frac{105}{100} \times 3135$

$\frac{21}{4} \times 627$

$\frac{13167}{4}$

$3291.75$

Now,

cost of watch when Pakhi bought =

$\frac{100 - 10\%}{100} \times 3291.75$

$\frac{90}{100} \times 3291.75$

$2962.575$

So, Pakhi bought the watch at the price = 2962.575 rupees
