Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given, for first TV

S.P=Rs5,750

Profit =15 %

Now, with this S.P. and for Profit % =

C.P.

S.P.−C.P.

×100=15 %

=>

C.P.

5,750−C.P.

×100=15

=>5,750−C.P.=0.15C.P.

1.15C.P.=5,750

=>C.P.=Rs5,000

As per given information, for another TV

C.P.=

100

130

×Rs5,000=Rs6500

S.P.=

100

120

×Rs5,750=Rs6900

So, Profit % =

C.P.

S.P.−C.P.

×100= 6500

6900−6500×100=

6500 400×100= 65400

= 1380=6132%
