​

Answer 1

18000%12=2160+18000=20160

20160%8=1612.8+20160=21792.8

so B buy a tv from A price is=20160

so C buy a tv from B price is=21792.8

Answer 2

Answer:

cost price of A = rs. 18,000

selling price of A =

$\frac{18000 \times 12 + 18000 }{100} = 20160$

cost price of B = 20160

selling price of B=

$\frac{20160 \times 8 + 20160}{100} = 21772.80$

Hence, C will buy the TV set in rs.21772.80
