Answer 1

Answer:

(a) The cost price of the table is $2025

(b) gain percent 100/9

Step-by-step explanation:

S.P. of table = 2250 Rs.

Let the C.P. = x Rs.

gained 1/9 of cp

Gain = SP - CP

Therefore x + 1/9x = 2250

take lcm , 9x + x / 9

10x / 9=2250

10x = 2250 x 9

X = 2250 x 9 / 10

(a) X (C.P) = 2025

(b) gain % = (2250 - 2025)/2025 [ it means that 2250 minus 2025 and divided by 2025 ]

Ans = 11 1/9 or 100/9
