(b)the discount given
(c)the selling price of the table
(d)profit or loss per cent for the carpenter.​

Answer 1

Answer:

marked price=6820 rupees

profit = 1120 rupees

discount= 682 rupees

selling price= 6138

profit %= 9.4 or 10% (approx)

Step-by-step explanation:

C.P=5600 (GIVEN)

PROFIT = 20% OF C.P

                         = 20/100*5600

           PROFIT = 1120 RUPEES

MARKED PRICE = PROFIT + C.P

                          = 5600+1120

MARKED PRICE (M.P)= 6820 RUPEES

DISCOUNT %=10 % (GIVEN)

DISCOUNT=  (10/100*M.P)

                 = (10/100*6820)

                 = 682 RUPEES

SELLING PRICE = M.P - DISCOUNT

                         =6820-682

                         =6130 RUPEES

SINCE S.P>C.P

THEREFORE, PROFIT IS EARNED

PROFIT = S.P-C.P

            =6130-5600

            =530 RUPEES

PROFIT %= PROFIT/C.P*100

               =530/5600*100

               =9.4 % (approx)

hope it helps u :)
