Answer 2

Answer:

let the c.p of house is 100

profit is 5% i.e, 100*5/100 =5

selling price is 100+5 = 105

if he sell rs.250 less he will gain 15/4%

now the cost price of house is 100

gain is 15/4%

the selling price is 100+15/4 = 415/4

then the difference of two selling price is

105-415/4 = 420-415/4 = 5/4

now, C.P is 250*100/5/4 = 250*100*4/5 = 50*100*4 = 20,000 ( get the ans bro )
