Question

96% of the cost of a TV is Rs.10464.What is its total cost?

Answer 1

The total cost of the T.V is Rs. 10900

Solution:

Let us assume that the cost of the TV is Rs x

So the $96\%$ of the TV is $\left(x \times\left(\frac{96}{100}\right)\right)=\frac{96 x}{100}$

It is given that, $96\%$ of the cost of a TV is Rs.10464

Hence we can say,

$\Rightarrow \frac{96 x}{100}=10464$

$\Rightrarrow 96 x=10464 \times 100$

$\Rightarrow x=\frac{10464 \times 100}{96}=10900$

So, the cost of the TV is Rs 10900.

Answer 2

Answer:

Let us assume that the cost of the TV is Rs x

So the 96\%96% of the TV is \left(x \times\left(\frac{96}{100}\right)\right)=\frac{96 x}{100}(x×(

100

96

))=

100

96x

It is given that, 96\%96% of the cost of a TV is Rs.10464

Hence we can say,

\Rightarrow \frac{96 x}{100}=10464⇒

100

96x

=10464

$$\Rightrarrow 96 x=10464 \times 100$$

$$\Rightarrow x=\frac{10464 \times 100}{96}=10900$$

So, the cost of the TV is Rs 10900.
