Question

a man sells a dog at a gain of 10%. had he sold it for rs 490 less, he would have lost 2%. find the cost price of the dog

(answer will be 4083.33 )​

Answer 1

Answer:CP= cost price SP = selling price P= profit L= loss

P℅=10℅

If CP=100rs. Then P= 10rs.

So SP= 90rs.

When CP= 100rs.Then L=2rs.

So SP= 98rs.

So when CP=100rs.then SP= 98rs.

i.e. SP = 490rs.then CP= (490×100/98) rs. = 500rs.

CP = RS.500

The Cost Price of dog = Rs. 500
