Question

a cycle is sold for rupees 880 at a loss of 20percent. For how much should it be sold to gain 10percent.

Answer 1

Answer:

Rs. 1210.00

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of the cycle ⇒ 100%

The selling price with a loss of 20% = Rs.880

That means; 80% of cost = Rs.880

Selling price with a profit of 10% = 110% of cost

So let's find the value of 110% of the cost;

80% = 880

1% = 880/80

    = 11

110% = 1% x 110

       = 11 x 110

       = Rs.1210
