$\bf \pink{Given}$

• Ranjan bought a second hand scooter for 6,000.
• He spent 300 on its repairs and sold it to Vineet at a profit of 10%.

$\bf \green{To \: Prove}$

• At what price did Mukesh buy the scooter?

$\bf \red{Solution}$

⏩(Ranjan) CP of the scooter = ₹6000

⏩Overhead expenses = ₹300

⏩Actual CP = ₹6300

⏩Profit% = 10%

⏩Profit= 10% of ₹6300

$\implies\frac{10}{100} \times 6300$

$\implies{630}$

⏩SP = CP + Profit

$\implies₹6300 + ₹630$

$\implies ₹6930$

⏩(Vineet) CP of the scooter = ₹6930

⏩Loss% = 10%

⏩Loss = 10% of ₹6930

$\implies \frac{10}{100} \times 6930$

$\implies₹ 693$

⏩SP = CP - Loss

$\implies ₹6930 - ₹693$

$\implies₹6237$

✅Mukesh buy the scooter at ₹6237
