Question

a dealer earned a profit of 4% by selling a calculator for 260rs. find the cost price of the calculator

Answer 1

Answer:

rs 250

Step-by-step explanation:

profit% = 4%

S.P of the calculator = rs 260

C.P = (S.P*100)/(100+profit%)

C.P = (26000)/(104)

C.P = rs 250

Answer 2

cp=sp/(profit%+100)*100
cp=260/(4+100)*100
cp=260/104*100
cp=130/52*100
=65/26*100
=65/13*50
=5*50
=250
cost price is250
