Answer 1

Answer:

2000

Step-by-step explanation:

i assume the cost price is 100

then the selling price at 10% profit would be 110 (100+ 10%of 100=100+10)

if he purchased it for 5% less then he would purchased it for 95 (100- 5% of 100=100-5)

now he would sell it at 20% profit

i.e 114 (95+ 20%of 95=95+19)

the difference between 2 selling price is 4 (114-110)

now 4 =80 as he had selled it for 80 more

if 4=80

1=80/4=20

100=20*100=2000
