Question

a man sold a camera for Rs 1710 losin 5% at what price should he sell the camera in order to gain 5%​

Answer 1

let say cost price = ₹ C

5% loss = (5/100)C = 0.05C

Selling price = cost price - Loss

C - 0.05C = 0.95C

0.95C = ₹ 1710

C = 1710/0.95

C = ₹ 1800

5% gain =(5/100)1800= ₹ 90

selling price = 1800 +90 = ₹ 1890
