Answer 1

Hello frnd!!!!!...here is ur answer

10% of 60000

60000×10/100=6000

so the cost price of the car is=60000+6000=66000

let the cost price is 100....then the selling price will be 100+15=115 (since 15 % gain)

if 100---------66000

then 115---------66000×115/100=75900 rs.

so the ans is 75900 rs.

Hope it will help you ☺
