Question

A dishonest seller wants to earn 30% profit by using false weight in the place of 1 kg. What weight does he substitute?​

Answer 1

Answer:

700 gram because 30% of 1 kg is 700g

Answer 2

Answer:

700

Step-by-step explanation:

Given Profit is 30%

Let CP=100%

SP=CP+profit

SP=130%

1 kg=1000 gm

let false weight is (1000-x)

130%=(1000-x)

100%=1000

x=300

(1000-300)=700
