A merchant buys 100 mats for Rs.10,500 and sells them at a profit of 15%.Find the S.P of each.

$\huge\boxed{\fcolorbox{red}{purple}{SOLUTION}}$

$cp = rs \: 10500 \\ \\ profit \: \% = 15\% \\ \\ \\ \\ sp = \frac{(100 + profit\%)}{100} \times cp \\ \\ \\ sp = \frac{(100 + 15)}{100} \times 10500 \\ \\ sp = \frac{115}{100} \times 10500 \\ \\ \\ sp = rs \: 12075$

SP= ₹12,075

Answer 2

Answer:

no. of mats buyed by the merchant- 100

total money at which it was bought- rs 10,500

profit%= 15%

sp= cp+profit

=cp+15%of 10,500

10,500+15/100*10,500

=12075= sp

hence the sp of each mat is 12,075
