Question

a man bought 63 sheep and sold 4 by 9 of them at a profit of 15% 1 by 7 at a profit of 50% and the remaining at a loss of 25% what did he pay for the Sheep if his gain was 7700 on the whole transaction​​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Total 63

4/9=28, at 15% so, 28×15=420% profit

1/7=9, at 50% so, 9×50=450% profit

remaining=26at 15%, so 26×25=650% loss.

Overall, (420+450-650)=220% profit

It's means 220 profit when CP =100

So, when 7700 profit CP =3500
