Answer 2

S O L U T I O N :

$\underline{\bf{Given\::}}$

• A lady bought an air conditioner, (C.P) = Rs.15200
• Spent on an air conditioner = Rs.300
• She get a gain% = 15%

$\underline{\bf{Explanation\::}}$

Total cost price of an air conditioner = Bought + Spent

Total cost price of an air conditioner = Rs.15200 + Rs.300

Total cost price of an air conditioner = Rs.15500

We direct using formula of the Selling price when become profit%;

$\boxed{\bf{Selling\:price,(S.P.) =\bigg( \frac{100 + profit\%}{100}\bigg) \times C.P.}}$

A/q

$\mapsto\tt{S.P. = \bigg(\dfrac{100+profit\:\%}{100}\bigg) \times C.P.}$

$\mapsto\tt{S.P. = \bigg(\dfrac{100+15}{100}\bigg) \times 15500}$

$\mapsto\tt{S.P. = \dfrac{115}{\cancel{100}}\times 155\cancel{00}}$

$\mapsto\tt{S.P. = Rs.(115 \times 155)}$

$\mapsto\bf{S.P. = Rs.17825}$

Thus,

The selling price Rs.17825 should sell to get a gain of 15% .
