भाग 12% लाभ पर बेच दी। बची हुई वस्तुओं को कितने %
हानि पर बेचें कि उसे कुल मिलाकर 4% का लाभ हो।
(a) % (b)% (c) 5% (d) 3%​

Answer 1

He gets 14% of loss that means he gets 86% of CP.

Thus,

Let the CP be Rs. 100.

60% of 100 + 16.66% of 60% of 100 X *40% of 100 = 86% of 100

70 + 40X = 86

40X = 86 - 70 =16

X = 16/40

X = 0.4
